Scan all .page.ts and .service.ts files in the project. Returns class names, methods (with @step decorators), and getters \u2014 so you know what page object methods are available before writing or fixing tests.
AI agents call e2e_scan_page_objects 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.
e2e_scan_page_objects performs static code analysis and metadata extraction from test files. It retrieves structural information about available page object methods without executing code, modifying files, or triggering any side effects. This is a classic Read operation—querying the project structure to inform test authoring.
From the tool's definition Tool scans and returns class names, methods, and getters from .page.ts and .service.ts files. The description explicitly states it 'returns' information and is used to 'know what page object methods are available'—a pure information retrieval operation with…
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access e2e_scan_page_objects 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_scan_page_objects:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"e2e_scan_page_objects": {}
}
}e2e_scan_page_objects is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Scan all .page.ts and .service.ts files in the project. Returns class names, methods (with @step decorators), and getters \u2014 so you know what page object methods are available before writing or fixing tests. 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_scan_page_objects: 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_scan_page_objects 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_scan_page_objects 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_scan_page_objects. 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_scan_page_objects 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.
