WHAT IT DOES

What ui_click does on Iconnect

AI agents invoke ui_click to trigger actions in Iconnect. 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 ui_click is rated High

Clicking UI elements triggers arbitrary actions in the operating system and applications — submitting forms, pressing buttons, confirming dialogs, etc. The actual effect depends entirely on what is clicked, ranging from benign navigation to destructive or financial operations.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs ui_click safely

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

ui_click Rate-limited

ui_click 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.
