WHAT IT DOES

What test_mobile does on Pentest Ai

AI agents invoke test_mobile to trigger actions in Pentest Ai. 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.

RISK

Why test_mobile is rated High

This tool executes real security testing tools against mobile applications (Android/iOS), performing both static and dynamic analysis. It actively runs security scanners and potentially exploits vulnerabilities as part of a pentest engagement. The asynchronous execution model means it triggers external operations whose effects depend on arguments.

From the tool's definition 'Run mobile app security testing', 'Static + dynamic analysis', 'agent runs asynchronously'

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs test_mobile safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Pentest Ai, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For test_mobile, this is the rule to start with:

test_mobile Rate-limited

test_mobile stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Pentest Ai, apply this rule, and every test_mobile call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about test_mobile

What does the test_mobile tool do? +

Run mobile app security testing (Android or iOS). Static + dynamic analysis. OWASP Mobile Top 10 coverage. Returns immediately with engagement_id; agent runs asynchronously. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Pentest Ai MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on test_mobile? +

Register the Pentest Ai MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for test_mobile: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Pentest Ai. Nothing to install.

What risk level is test_mobile? +

test_mobile is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit test_mobile? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the test_mobile rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block test_mobile completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for test_mobile. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides test_mobile? +

test_mobile is provided by the Pentest Ai MCP server (0xsteph/pentest-ai). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
