Why screenshot_focus_selection needs a policy

The tool only reads the current state of the editor by taking a screenshot. It adjusts the viewport focus (a non-destructive, reversible visual change) and captures an image. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed.

How to control screenshot_focus_selection

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "screenshot_focus_selection": {}
  }
}

screenshot_focus_selection is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Uefn — 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.
