What browser_geo_set does on Termux Browser Pilot
AI agents invoke browser_geo_set to trigger actions in Termux Browser Pilot. 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 browser_geo_set is rated High
This tool modifies the browser's geolocation API, injecting a fake location into the browser runtime. It triggers an external browser operation that overrides navigator.geolocation — this is an Execute-class action (manipulating browser state/behavior) rather than a simple Write to a data store. Misuse could enable location spoofing for deceptive purposes, but blast radius is limited to the current browser session.

The rule that runs browser_geo_set safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Termux Browser Pilot, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For browser_geo_set, this is the rule to start with:
browser_geo_set 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Termux Browser Pilot, apply this rule, and every browser_geo_set call is checked against it from then on.
