AI agents invoke mouse_click to trigger actions in OODA Computer Control. 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.
Clicking the mouse triggers UI interactions and external operations whose effects depend on arguments (e.g., what is clicked). This is an Execute-category action as it can trigger arbitrary application behaviors, button presses, link navigation, form submissions, etc. Severity is medium because misuse could cause unintended UI actions, but effects are generally reversible depending on what is clicked.
From the tool's definition Click mouse button at position. Supports double-click.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access mouse_click gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and OODA Computer Control, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for mouse_click:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"mouse_click": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "mouse_click_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}mouse_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 mouse button at position. Supports double-click. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the OODA Computer Control MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the OODA Computer Control MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mouse_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 OODA Computer Control. Nothing to install.
mouse_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 mouse_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 mouse_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.
mouse_click is provided by the OODA Computer Control MCP server (mnehmos/mnehmos.ooda.mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from OODA Computer Control, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
