Get console output from a test run. Optionally filter by type (error, warn, log, info).
AI agents call e2e_get_console to retrieve information from Playwright Autopilot without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves historical console output data from a completed or running test session. It performs no mutations, code execution, or external state changes. The filtering capability (error, warn, log, info) is a read-time query parameter, not an action. Consistent with the server's debugging and analysis purpose, this is pure information retrieval.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description: 'Get console output from a test run. Optionally filter by type' — retrieves and queries existing console logs without modifying or executing anything.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access e2e_get_console gives an agent:
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_console:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"e2e_get_console": {}
}
}e2e_get_console is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get console output from a test run. Optionally filter by type (error, warn, log, info). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Playwright Autopilot MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Playwright Autopilot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for e2e_get_console: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Playwright Autopilot. Nothing to install.
e2e_get_console is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the e2e_get_console rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for e2e_get_console. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
e2e_get_console is provided by the Playwright Autopilot MCP server (kaizen-yutani/playwright-autopilot). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Playwright Autopilot, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
