`target`	string	—	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

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs cdp.input.type safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Pixi Inspector, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For cdp.input.type, this is the rule to start with:

cdp.input.type Rate-limited

cdp.input.type gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
