What set_viewport_size does on MCP Camoufox

AI agents invoke set_viewport_size to trigger actions in MCP Camoufox. 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.

Why set_viewport_size needs a policy

This tool changes the browser's viewport dimensions, which is a browser execution action affecting the rendering environment. It's not purely reading data, nor is it writing persistent data or destructive. It falls under Execute as it triggers an external browser operation (viewport configuration change). Blast radius is low since it only affects display dimensions.

From the tool's definition Set viewport width and height — modifies browser state/configuration

How to control set_viewport_size

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "set_viewport_size": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "set_viewport_size_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

set_viewport_size 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.

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