WHAT IT DOES

What visual_list does on Claude Mobile

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

RISK

Why visual_list is rated Low

The tool retrieves or queries a collection of saved visual baselines for comparison purposes (likely used in UI testing workflows). This is a read-only operation that has no side effects, does not execute code or commands, and does not modify any state. The blast radius of misuse is minimal — an attacker could only discover what visual baselines exist in the system, not alter them or trigger actions.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'visual_list' and description states 'List saved visual baselines' — a retrieval operation with no modification or execution capability.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs visual_list safely

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

visual_list Allowed

visual_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "visual_list": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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