This tool reads and aggregates existing YouTube data (transcript, topics, entities, comments) into a formatted report. It retrieves and structures information without creating, modifying, or deleting any data, and has no side effects beyond returning the generated report content.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP YouTube Intelligence, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for generate_report:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"generate_report": {}
}
}generate_report is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
