puppeteer_evaluate · Helm Chart CLI MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What puppeteer_evaluate does on Helm Chart CLI

AI agents invoke puppeteer_evaluate to trigger actions in Helm Chart CLI. 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 puppeteer_evaluate needs a policy

Executing arbitrary JavaScript in a browser context is a code execution capability that can modify page state, exfiltrate data, perform unauthorized actions on behalf of the user, or trigger unintended side effects.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Execute JavaScript in the browser console' — this directly runs code with browser-level effects including DOM manipulation, network requests, and access to page data.
