WHAT CAMOFOX_WAIT_FOR_SELECTOR ON CAMOFOX DOES

AI agents invoke camofox_wait_for_selector 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.

THE RISK

High Risk

This tool executes browser automation logic—specifically DOM polling/waiting operations that trigger dependent actions in a browser context. While not destructive or financial, it orchestrates browser interactions whose effects depend on what the AI agent does next with the selector result.

From the tool's definition "Wait for a CSS selector to appear in the live DOM" combined with server description stating tools enable "browser automation" and "stealth fingerprinting that passes bot detection." This tool waits for DOM state changes and coordinates with other browser…

HOW TO CONTROL CAMOFOX_WAIT_FOR_SELECTOR

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 camofox_wait_for_selector:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "camofox_wait_for_selector": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "camofox_wait_for_selector_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

camofox_wait_for_selector 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.

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