Why check_protection_status needs a policy

This is a read-only operation that retrieves status information about existing protections and detection mechanisms. It does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or move money. The context of a browser automation server does not change the nature of a status check, which is fundamentally informational. Confidence is high because the name and description clearly indicate a passive query operation.

From the tool's definition Tool is named 'check_protection_status' and described as 'Check current protection and detection status' — it queries the current state of protections without modifying, executing operations, or causing side effects.

How to control check_protection_status

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Pydoll, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for check_protection_status:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "check_protection_status": {}
  }
}

check_protection_status is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Pydoll — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
