Why getMetaTags needs a policy

This tool retrieves and queries metadata from the DOM without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing code. It is purely informational and falls squarely into the Read category with low severity due to minimal misuse potential—meta tags are typically public page information with no security or operational impact if exposed to an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'getMetaTags' and description 'Get all meta tags from the current page' indicate data retrieval with no modification. Meta tags are read-only page metadata (title, description, keywords, etc.). No side effects or state changes occur.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access getMetaTags gives an agent:

How to control getMetaTags

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

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

getMetaTags 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 PlayMCP Browser Automation Server — 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.
