What restore_session_state does on JS Reverse Strong MCP

AI agents invoke restore_session_state to trigger actions in JS Reverse Strong MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why restore_session_state needs a policy

Restoring a session state to the current page triggers external browser operations that overwrite the current runtime environment. This is not a simple read; it actively mutates the browser page state. While it could be considered Write, it executes a browser action that changes runtime context, making Execute the most appropriate category.

From the tool's definition 'Restore a previously saved session snapshot to current page' — actively modifies the browser's current page state by applying a saved snapshot

How to control restore_session_state

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "restore_session_state": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "restore_session_state_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

restore_session_state stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register JS Reverse Strong MCP — 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.
