Stop recording the browser session and save the video. This tool stops the active video recording, saves the video file, and returns a resource URI for the recorded video. **Session state preservation:** Cookies and localStorage are automatically saved and restored when the context is recycled....
Part of the Playwright Stealth MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents invoke browser_stop_recording to trigger processes or run actions in Playwright Stealth. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
browser_stop_recording can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

browser_stop_recording is one of the high-risk operations in Playwright Stealth. For the full severity-focused view — only the high-risk tools with their recommended policies — see the breakdown for this server, or browse all high-risk tools across every MCP server.
Stop recording the browser session and save the video. This tool stops the active video recording, saves the video file, and returns a resource URI for the recorded video. **Session state preservation:** Cookies and localStorage are automatically saved and restored when the context is recycled. sessionStorage for the current origin is also preserved on a best-effort basis. The browser automatically navigates back to the URL it was on before the recording stopped. **Error:** Returns an error if no recording is currently active. Use `browser_start_recording` first. **Returns:** - A resource_link with the `file://` URI to the saved video file (WebM format) - The video can be accessed later via MCP resources. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Playwright Stealth MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for browser_stop_recording. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Playwright Stealth MCP server.
browser_stop_recording 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 browser_stop_recording rule in your Intercept 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 Intercept policy for browser_stop_recording. 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.
browser_stop_recording is provided by the Playwright Stealth MCP server (playwright-stealth-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
