jitsi_stop_recording · Jitsi MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What jitsi_stop_recording does on Jitsi

AI agents invoke jitsi_stop_recording to trigger actions in Jitsi. 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 jitsi_stop_recording needs a policy

jitsi_stop_recording triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once — it starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

jitsi_stop_recording Rate-limited
