What uxpass_run does on UnClick

AI agents invoke uxpass_run to trigger actions in UnClick. 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.

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
url string Target URL for a one-off run (takes precedence over pack_name)
hats array Reserved for future use. Currently ignored; the deterministic runner evaluates the full uxpass-core check set on every run.
task_id string Client-generated idempotency key (UUIDv5 from thread_id + prompt_hash + time_bucket recommended). Required for safe retry. If omitted, the server creates a fres
pack_name string Name of a registered UXPass pack; the pack's url is used as the target

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Why uxpass_run needs a policy

This tool triggers external operations (automated testing/scanning of arbitrary URLs) whose effects depend on the URL argument provided. The tool runs code-like operations (quality checks, security checks) against target systems, which is characteristic of Execute category.

From the tool's definition Tool executes deterministic checks "against a URL" and "returns the run id, status" indicating active operations performed on external systems.

Questions about uxpass_run

What does the uxpass_run tool do? +

Run a UI/UX quality check synchronously against a URL. Executes the deterministic uxpass-core check set (HTTP, HTML, accessibility, agent readability, performance, security) against the target and returns the run id, status, UX Score, and summary. Pass either url (a one-off check) or pack_name (resolves the registered pack's url). The hats parameter is accepted for forward compatibility but is currently ignored; LLM hats land in a later chunk. Response includes was_duplicate: boolean indicating whether the row was already present (idempotent retry). It is categorised as a Execute tool in the UnClick MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

What parameters does uxpass_run accept? +

uxpass_run accepts 4 parameters: url, hats, task_id, pack_name. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on uxpass_run? +

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

What risk level is uxpass_run? +

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

Can I rate-limit uxpass_run? +

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

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

uxpass_run is provided by the UnClick MCP server (@unclick/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
