AI agents invoke domshell_script to trigger processes or run actions in DOMShell. 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.

domshell_script 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.

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

What does the domshell_script tool do? +

Save and run multi-command scripts. Scripts persist across service worker restarts.\n\nSubcommands:\n script list List saved scripts\n script save <name> cmd1 ; cmd2 Save commands (separated by. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the DOMShell MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on domshell_script? +

Register the DOMShell MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for domshell_script: 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 DOMShell. Nothing to install.

What risk level is domshell_script? +

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

Can I rate-limit domshell_script? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the domshell_script 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 domshell_script completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for domshell_script. 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 domshell_script? +

domshell_script is provided by the DOMShell MCP server (@apireno/domshell). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every DOMShell tool call.
