AI agents call browser_attr_get to retrieve information from Termux Browser Pilot without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves attribute data from DOM elements in a browser context. It performs read-only inspection with no capability to modify state, execute code, or trigger external operations. The 'Get' verb and description confirm passive data retrieval, making this a low-severity Read category tool. Confidence is high given the explicit 'Get' operation and straightforward retrieval semantics.
From the tool's definition Get attribute(s) from an element — retrieves element attributes without modification or side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access browser_attr_get gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Termux Browser Pilot, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for browser_attr_get:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"browser_attr_get": {}
}
}browser_attr_get is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Register the Termux Browser Pilot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for browser_attr_get: 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 Termux Browser Pilot. Nothing to install.
browser_attr_get 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 browser_attr_get 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 browser_attr_get. 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.
browser_attr_get is provided by the Termux Browser Pilot MCP server (salviz/termux-browser-pilot). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Termux Browser Pilot, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
