- Homepage: https://github.com/Anirbandz/Chrome_MCP_DEVTOOL
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified

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

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

## Why drag is rated High

Dragging an element onto another is a browser action that executes a user-interaction sequence via Chrome DevTools Protocol. The effect depends on the target application's response to the drag-and-drop event, making it Execute. It is not purely destructive or financial, but misuse could trigger unintended application state changes.

From the tool's own definition: "'Drag an element onto another element' — triggers a browser interaction (drag-and-drop) that manipulates the live Chrome browser UI and may cause side effects depending on the target application (e.g., reordering, moving files, triggering UI events)."

## Use case

AI agents invoke drag to trigger actions in Chrome DevTools MCP. 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Chrome DevTools MCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "drag": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "drag_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
