Moves the mouse cursor over the specified element.
AI agents invoke omniparser_mouse_move to trigger actions in Omniparser Autogui. 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.
Moving the mouse cursor triggers an external GUI operation that affects the state of the screen/UI environment. While less impactful than clicking or typing, it can trigger hover effects, tooltips, dropdown menus, or other UI interactions. It is part of a GUI automation suite designed for 'automatic operation of on-screen GUI', making it an Execute-category action with moderate blast radius.

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

Moves the mouse cursor over the specified element. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Omniparser Autogui MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Omniparser Autogui MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for omniparser_mouse_move: 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 Omniparser Autogui. Nothing to install.
omniparser_mouse_move 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 omniparser_mouse_move 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 omniparser_mouse_move. 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.
omniparser_mouse_move is provided by the Omniparser Autogui MCP server (non906/omniparser-autogui-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
