Why text_to_audio needs a policy

The description explicitly states the tool calls the MiniMax API and may incur costs. While its primary function is a Write operation (generating and saving an audio file), the financial implication of API usage costs elevates it to the Financial category per the severity hierarchy. Misuse by an AI agent could result in repeated API calls generating unexpected charges.

From the tool's definition This tool calls MiniMax API and may incur costs.

How to control text_to_audio

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MiniMax MCP JS, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for text_to_audio:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "text_to_audio": {
      "deny_if": [
        {
          "conditions": [],
          "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any call to text_to_audio is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.
