Get a downloaded file. Images are always returned as viewable images. Recommended for AI agents: set includeContent=true to get non-image file content as base64 inline (max 256KB). Otherwise returns metadata only (including contentUrl).
AI agents call get_download to retrieve information from Camofox without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves previously downloaded files and their metadata without modifying state or executing operations. However, severity is elevated from 'low' to 'medium' because: (1) the parent server is anti-detection browser automation that 'passes bot detection,' suggesting use for evasion; (2) retrieval of file contents could expose sensitive data scraped or exfiltrated by prior stealth automation; (3) an AI…
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_download' and description 'Get a downloaded file' indicate data retrieval only. Returns 'viewable images' and 'file content as base64' (read operation) or 'metadata only (including contentUrl)' — no creation, modification, deletion, or…
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_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 get_download:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_download": {}
}
}get_download is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get a downloaded file. Images are always returned as viewable images. Recommended for AI agents: set includeContent=true to get non-image file content as base64 inline (max 256KB). Otherwise returns metadata only (including contentUrl). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Camofox MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Camofox MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_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.
get_download is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_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 get_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.
get_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.
