Why upload_douyin_video needs a policy

This tool uploads video files to Douyin (TikTok China), which creates new data/content on the platform. While uploads are reversible (videos can be deleted), this is a content creation action that modifies the platform's state. It carries high severity due to potential for mass uploading, spam, or unauthorized content distribution to a large audience.

From the tool's definition Tool description states '上传指定路径下的视频' (upload video from specified path). Server description confirms 'uploading videos from specified local paths.' The tool creates new content on the Douyin platform.

How to control upload_douyin_video

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "upload_douyin_video": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "upload_douyin_video_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

upload_douyin_video stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Dy — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
