## Why chrome_interact_element is rated High

This tool triggers real browser interactions on DOM elements such as clicking, hovering, and selecting. These are active browser actions that can trigger event handlers, form submissions, navigation, or other side effects depending on the page context. The effects are determined by the arguments (which element and what action), making this an Execute-category tool.

From the tool's own definition: "Perform various interactions with DOM elements (click, hover, select, etc.)"

## Use case

AI agents invoke chrome_interact_element to trigger actions in Chrome Feedback. 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.
