Get detailed info about a TV show including seasons and episodes. For large series, use seasonNumber to get one season at a time, or page/pageSize to paginate episodes.
AI agents call show_details to retrieve information from Mediabox MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries metadata about TV shows, seasons, and episodes without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no side effects on the system or data. The pagination parameters (seasonNumber, page, pageSize) are filtering mechanisms for read operations. Severity is low because misuse would only expose existing media library information without enabling harmful actions.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get detailed info about a TV show including seasons and episodes' with pagination options. The verbs 'get' and 'info retrieval' indicate read-only operations with no modifications.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access show_details gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mediabox MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for show_details:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"show_details": {}
}
}show_details is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Register the Mediabox MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for show_details: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Mediabox MCP. Nothing to install.
show_details is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the show_details rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for show_details. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
show_details is provided by the Mediabox MCP server (juancmpdev/mediabox-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Mediabox MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
