# cdp.console.list

Returns buffered console/log/exception entries with level + text + bounded arg previews. Fails with CDP_NO_SESSION if cdp.console.start was not called. Acts only on the session of the tab this call resolves to; a session held by another tab answers CDP_NO_SESSION naming that tab and is left untouched.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `level` | string | no | Filter by normalised level. |
| `limit` | integer | no | Max entries to return (most recent; cap 500, default 100). |
| `tabId` | integer | no | Legacy: a bare tab id, resolved inside the browser this session is already working with. Prefer `target`, which is unambiguous across browsers. |
| `target` | string | no | Drive a specific tab: a target id like "b7a3c1#487" from status/use_target/CHOOSE_TARGET. Omit to use this session's chosen tab (or the only available one). Pas |
| `frameId` | integer | no | Escape hatch: drive a specific FRAME of the tab (0 is the top frame). Normally unnecessary — the extension picks the frame running the game (canvas owner first, |

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "cdp.console.list",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}

## Why cdp.console.list is rated High

cdp.console.list triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

## Use case

AI agents invoke cdp.console.list to trigger actions in Pixi Inspector. 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Pixi Inspector:

```json

  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "cdp.console.list": {
      "limits": [
        {
