WHAT IT DOES

What browser_navigate_back does on Dialogbrain

RISK

Why browser_navigate_back is rated High

This tool executes a browser navigation action whose effects depend on the current browsing context and history state. While not destructive or financial, it is an Execute-category tool because it performs an external operation (browser control) rather than merely reading data.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Navigate back in the page's history (browser back button)' — this performs an action that triggers external browser behavior and changes application state.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs browser_navigate_back safely

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

browser_navigate_back Rate-limited

browser_navigate_back 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.

        }
      ]
    }
  }

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Dialogbrain, apply this rule, and every browser_navigate_back call is checked against it from then on.
