What save_page_snapshot does on Jshookmcp

Why save_page_snapshot is rated Medium
Creates a persistent snapshot of page data; reversible but modifies storage with browser-captured content.

The rule that runs save_page_snapshot safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Jshookmcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For save_page_snapshot, this is the rule to start with:
save_page_snapshot stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Jshookmcp, apply this rule, and every save_page_snapshot call is checked against it from then on.
