WHAT IT DOES

What scrape_page does on CoWork OS

AI agents use scrape_page to create or update resources in CoWork OS, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your CoWork OS environment.

RISK

Why scrape_page is rated Medium

An AI agent can call scrape_page faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in CoWork OS by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs scrape_page safely

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

scrape_page Rate-limited

scrape_page stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
