WHAT IT DOES

What orgo_screenshot does on Orgo MCP Server

AI agents call orgo_screenshot to retrieve information from Orgo MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

THE RISK

Low Risk

Why orgo_screenshot needs a policy

orgo_screenshot retrieves visual data from the virtual machine for inspection purposes only. It has no side effects, creates no changes to data or system state, and does not execute code or delete anything. This aligns squarely with the 'Read' category (retrieves or queries data; no side effects). The low severity reflects minimal risk even if misused—screenshots alone cannot harm data or system integrity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states: 'Take a screenshot of the full VM display' and 'Returns an image.' This is purely observational—it captures the current visual state without modifying, executing commands, or affecting system state.

POLICY

How to control orgo_screenshot

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "orgo_screenshot": {}
  }
}

orgo_screenshot is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Orgo MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

How do I enforce a policy on orgo_screenshot? +

Register the Orgo MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for orgo_screenshot: 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 Orgo MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is orgo_screenshot? +

How do I block orgo_screenshot completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for orgo_screenshot. 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.

What MCP server provides orgo_screenshot? +

orgo_screenshot is provided by the Orgo MCP Server MCP server (nickvasilescu/orgo-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
