Extract resources from a DOM container and download them all. Combines extract_resources + download in one call. Useful for downloading all images from a chat, all PDFs from a table, etc.
AI agents invoke batch_download to trigger actions in Camofox. 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.
This tool performs browser-driven extraction and downloading of external resources (images, PDFs, etc.) from web pages. It triggers external network operations (downloading files) and writes data to the local filesystem, making it an Execute-class tool.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access batch_download gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Camofox, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for batch_download:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"batch_download": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "batch_download_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}batch_download 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.

Extract resources from a DOM container and download them all. Combines extract_resources + download in one call. Useful for downloading all images from a chat, all PDFs from a table, etc. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Camofox MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Camofox MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for batch_download: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Camofox. Nothing to install.
batch_download 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 batch_download rule in your PolicyLayer 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 PolicyLayer policy for batch_download. 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.
batch_download is provided by the Camofox MCP server (redf0x1/camofox-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
