Browse articles from your news feed. Supports chronological or personalized
AI agents call crow_media_feed to retrieve information from Crow 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 news feed data for viewing purposes. It performs no modifications, deletions, code execution, or financial transactions. The 'browse' operation is a pure read action typical of feed readers and news aggregators. Low severity because misuse would only expose information the user already has access to through their own feed.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Browse articles from your news feed' with support for 'chronological or personalized' browsing. The verb 'browse' and the retrieval-focused nature of reading articles indicate data retrieval with no side effects.

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