wait_for_live · Luxxon MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What wait_for_live does on Luxxon

AI agents invoke wait_for_live to trigger actions in Luxxon. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why wait_for_live needs a policy

This tool performs an Execute action because it transitions an external system's state and initiates a billable live streaming operation. While it doesn't directly move money, it commits to an ongoing financial obligation (per-second USDC settlement on Base). The severity is high because misuse could result in extended unauthorized live sessions with accumulated charges.

From the tool's definition wait_for_live continues waiting on a session until it reaches LIVE state and returns a whepUrl, which represents a live WebRTC stream.
