# Scrape

Fetch/scrape web page content from a URL. Keywords: scrape, fetch, browse, web, URL, extract, download, read webpage. By default (use_dom=False), performs a lightweight HTTP request to the URL and returns a clean LLM-processed summary of the page to avoid context bloat. Provide query to focus extraction on specific information. Set use_dom=True to extract from the active browser tab

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "Scrape",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why Scrape is rated Low

The tool retrieves web page content via HTTP requests or from the active browser DOM. It has no write or destructive side effects. However, severity is medium because it can access arbitrary URLs (including internal/private network resources), potentially leaking sensitive data or enabling SSRF-style attacks if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Fetch/scrape web page content from a URL... performs a lightweight HTTP request to the URL and returns a clean LLM-processed summary of the page"

## Use case

AI agents call Scrape to retrieve information from Windows-MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Windows-MCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "Scrape": {}
  }
}
```
