🛡️ AgentReady threat assessment
MAESTRO 7-layer threat model + OWASP AIVSS risk score for YouTube MCP, derived from its capabilities.
These scores are auto-generated from public information (the agent's own listing, docs, and repository) using the canonical OWASP AIVSS formula and the MAESTRO framework — an estimate for guidance, not a penetration test, audit, or certification. See the scoring methodology — every score is re-derived by the same automated method as an agent's public evidence changes.
Overview
This connector lets agents search YouTube, pull video and channel metadata, and retrieve captions/transcripts for summarization and analysis. It reads public video data via the YouTube Data API and transcript sources. Retrieved transcripts are untrusted user-generated text and can carry prompt-injection content into downstream reasoning.
