Why write_string_with_mouse_button_and_keys_held needs a policy

The tool name suggests it types/writes a string while holding mouse buttons and keys, which is a keyboard/mouse input action on a remote desktop. This constitutes executing an interaction on an external system. The description is empty, so confidence is reduced, but the name and server context strongly imply keyboard input combined with mouse button holding — a complex input automation action.

From the tool's definition Tool name: 'write_string_with_mouse_button_and_keys_held'; server provides 'mouse and keyboard control, and automation' over VNC desktops

POLICY

How to control write_string_with_mouse_button_and_keys_held

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

policy.json

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

write_string_with_mouse_button_and_keys_held 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 Vnc — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
