AI agents use extension to create or modify resources in Mcp Accessibility Scanner. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call extension repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Mcp Accessibility Scanner.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access extension 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 extension only ever does what you allow.

What does the extension tool do? +

Connect to a browser using the Playwright MCP extension. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Mcp Accessibility Scanner MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on extension? +

Register the Mcp Accessibility Scanner MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for extension: 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 Mcp Accessibility Scanner. Nothing to install.

What risk level is extension? +

extension is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit extension? +

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

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

extension is provided by the Mcp Accessibility Scanner MCP server (JustasMonkev/mcp-accessibility-scanner). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Mcp Accessibility Scanner tool call.
