WHAT IT DOES

What wait_for_window does on Allcanuse

AI agents invoke wait_for_window to trigger actions in Allcanuse. 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.

RISK

Why wait_for_window is rated High

Wait-for-window operations are Execute category because they interact with and control system state (window management/monitoring). While not immediately destructive, they enable sequencing of other system actions and could be misused to manipulate user interactions or lock an AI into waiting indefinitely.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'wait_for_window' combined with server context describing 'AI assistants to systematically manage local systems' with 'command execution' and 'more' capabilities.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs wait_for_window safely

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

wait_for_window Rate-limited

wait_for_window stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
