Click an element in Chrome/Electron by CSS selector. Uses CDP Input.dispatchMouseEvent for realistic mouse events.
AI agents invoke browser_click to trigger actions in ScreenHand. 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.
This tool executes a mouse click action in a browser via Chrome DevTools Protocol. It triggers external UI interactions whose effects depend on what element is clicked — could submit forms, navigate pages, trigger purchases, or invoke other operations. The effect is highly context-dependent, making it Execute-level risk with medium severity since the blast radius depends on the target element.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access browser_click gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and ScreenHand, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for browser_click:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"browser_click": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "browser_click_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}browser_click 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.

Click an element in Chrome/Electron by CSS selector. Uses CDP Input.dispatchMouseEvent for realistic mouse events. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the ScreenHand MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the ScreenHand MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for browser_click: 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 ScreenHand. Nothing to install.
browser_click is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the browser_click 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 browser_click. 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.
browser_click is provided by the ScreenHand MCP server (manushi4/screenhand). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from ScreenHand, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
