cloak_scroll · CloakBrowser MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What cloak_scroll does on CloakBrowser MCP Server

AI agents invoke cloak_scroll to trigger actions in CloakBrowser MCP Server. 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 IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why cloak_scroll needs a policy

Scrolling is a browser interaction/action executed against a live browser session. It has side effects (can trigger lazy-loading, infinite scroll content fetching, or reveal new DOM elements) and is part of a broader browser automation context. While relatively benign on its own, it qualifies as Execute since it triggers an external operation in the browser environment.

From the tool's definition 'Scroll the page in a direction' — triggers a browser action (scrolling) within an automated stealth browser session
