WHAT IT DOES

What browser_drag does on Cowork Bench

AI agents invoke browser_drag to trigger actions in Cowork Bench. 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.

RISK

Why browser_drag is rated High

This tool executes a browser UI action (drag and drop), which is an external operation whose effects depend on the arguments provided. It falls under Execute as it triggers browser actions that could manipulate UI state, move data, or trigger application-level events depending on the context.

From the tool's definition 'Perform drag and drop between two elements' — triggers a browser interaction/action

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs browser_drag safely

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

browser_drag Rate-limited

browser_drag 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.
