Get DOM tree with computed styles
AI agents call ira_inspect_element to retrieve information from IRA-RESEARCHER without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and inspects the DOM tree and computed CSS styles of a web page. It performs no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, or trigger actions. It is purely informational, analogous to browser developer tools inspection features. While the broader server has automation and execution capabilities, this specific tool is constrained to read-only information gathering.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'ira_inspect_element' and description 'Get DOM tree with computed styles' indicate passive retrieval of page structure and styling information without modification or execution.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get DOM tree with computed styles. It is categorised as a Read tool in the IRA-RESEARCHER MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the IRA-RESEARCHER MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ira_inspect_element: 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 IRA-RESEARCHER. Nothing to install.
ira_inspect_element 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 ira_inspect_element 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 ira_inspect_element. 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.
ira_inspect_element is provided by the IRA-RESEARCHER MCP server (neuralnexustech/ira-researcher). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
