## Why browser_wait_for_selector is rated High

This tool executes a conditional wait operation on a mobile device's browser, which qualifies as Execute rather than Read because it actively manipulates timing and control flow of device interactions rather than passively retrieving data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool performs a browser action ('wait for element to appear on page') that triggers external operations on a mobile device. The server description explicitly states it enables 'browser actions' and 'UI interactions' through device control."

## Use case

AI agents invoke browser_wait_for_selector to trigger actions in Claude Mobile. 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.
