WHAT IT DOES

What DoubleClick does on Android

AI agents invoke DoubleClick to trigger actions in Android. 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.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`locate`	object	Yes	The element to be double clicked
`android.deviceId`	string	—	Android device ID (from adb devices)
`android.useScrcpy`	boolean	—	Enable scrcpy accelerated screenshots
`android.aiActContext`	string	—	Background knowledge passed to aiAct. Default: no extra context.
`android.waitAfterAction`	number	—	Wait time in milliseconds after each action execution. Default: 300ms.
`android.replanningCycleLimit`	integer	—	Maximum number of replanning cycles for aiAct. Default: model adapter default.
`android.screenshotShrinkFactor`	number	—	Screenshot shrink factor before sending images to AI. Default: 1; high values may reduce recognition quality, especially on mobile.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why DoubleClick is rated High

Double-clicking an element on a device triggers external operations (UI automation) whose effects depend on the target element. This is an Execute-category action as it drives real device interactions; severity is medium because misuse could open apps, confirm dialogs, or trigger unintended actions, but the blast radius is generally bounded by the device's UI state.

From the tool's definition DoubleClick action, Double click the element — triggers a UI interaction on an Android device that executes an action depending on what element is targeted

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs DoubleClick safely

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

DoubleClick Rate-limited

DoubleClick 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.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "DoubleClick": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "doubleclick_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

RATE-LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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