Why getScripts needs a policy

This tool retrieves JavaScript source code from a webpage for inspection purposes. It performs a read-only query operation that returns information about the page without modifying state, executing arbitrary code, or causing side effects. While the retrieved JavaScript code itself might contain sensitive information, the tool's function is purely informational retrieval.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'getScripts' and description 'Get all JavaScript code from the current page' indicate retrieval of existing data with no modification or execution of code.

How to control getScripts

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 getScripts:

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

getScripts 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.
