Why browser_video_chapter needs a policy

The description is empty, so the exact behavior is unknown. The name suggests navigating to or retrieving a video chapter in a browser context, which could be a Read or Execute action. Given the ambiguity, and that it appears to be a minor navigation/seek operation on video content, it is classified as Other with low confidence due to insufficient information.

How to control browser_video_chapter

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Playwright, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for browser_video_chapter:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "browser_video_chapter": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "browser_video_chapter_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

  1. Create a free account and register Playwright — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
