AI agents use present_tab to create or modify resources in Dialogbrain. 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 present_tab 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 Dialogbrain.

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

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so present_tab only ever does what you allow.

What does the present_tab tool do? +

Share the agent's browser tab on the live call so everyone sees it as a real screen-share. Pass the page_id you got from browser.open. Only usable while the agent is in an active voice call. The shared tab stays the active share until you call present_tab with a different page_id, close the tab via browser.close, or the call ends.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Dialogbrain MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on present_tab? +

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

What risk level is present_tab? +

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

Can I rate-limit present_tab? +

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

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

present_tab is provided by the Dialogbrain MCP server (https://api.dialogbrain.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Dialogbrain tool call.
