Why e2e_get_actions needs a policy

This tool retrieves and displays a log or timeline of actions that occurred during a past test run. It is a pure read operation that queries execution history without modifying any state, triggering new actions, or affecting the system under test. The 'get' verb and passive 'shows what happened' language confirm read-only semantics.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'e2e_get_actions' and description 'Get the action timeline for a test run. Shows what happened step-by-step' indicate retrieval of historical test execution data with no modification or side effects.

POLICY

How to control e2e_get_actions

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Playwright Autopilot, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for e2e_get_actions:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "e2e_get_actions": {}
  }
}

e2e_get_actions is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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