Capture HTTP network requests from a Chrome tab — like the DevTools Network tab.
AI agents call pilotgentic_devtools_network to retrieve information from PilotGentic without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads/monitors network traffic from a Chrome tab, similar to a passive network inspector. It retrieves data without modifying anything. However, severity is medium because captured network requests may contain sensitive data such as authentication tokens, cookies, API keys, or personal information that could be exfiltrated if misused.
From the tool's definition Capture HTTP network requests from a Chrome tab — like the DevTools Network tab.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Capture HTTP network requests from a Chrome tab — like the DevTools Network tab. It is categorised as a Read tool in the PilotGentic MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the PilotGentic MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pilotgentic_devtools_network: 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 PilotGentic. Nothing to install.
pilotgentic_devtools_network 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 pilotgentic_devtools_network 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 pilotgentic_devtools_network. 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.
pilotgentic_devtools_network is provided by the PilotGentic MCP server (@pilotgentic/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
