web_preview_stop · Yaver MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What web_preview_stop does on Yaver

AI agents invoke web_preview_stop to trigger actions in Yaver. 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.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why web_preview_stop needs a policy

web_preview_stop triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once — it starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

web_preview_stop Rate-limited
