AI agents invoke runAuditMode to trigger processes or run actions in BrowserTools. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

runAuditMode can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access runAuditMode gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so runAuditMode only ever does what you allow.

What does the runAuditMode tool do? +

Run all audit tools in sequence. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the BrowserTools MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on runAuditMode? +

Register the BrowserTools MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for runAuditMode: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches BrowserTools. Nothing to install.

What risk level is runAuditMode? +

runAuditMode is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit runAuditMode? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the runAuditMode rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block runAuditMode completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for runAuditMode. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides runAuditMode? +

runAuditMode is provided by the BrowserTools MCP server (@AgentDeskAI/browser-tools-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every BrowserTools tool call.
