## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why browser_hover is rated High

Based on the tool name and server context (real browser automation), 'browser_hover' almost certainly simulates a mouse hover action over a web element, which is a browser interaction/execution action. No description is provided to confirm, so confidence is reduced. Hover actions themselves have limited blast radius but can trigger UI events, tooltips, or dynamic content changes.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'browser_hover' on a browser automation server; description is empty and uninformative."

## Use case

AI agents invoke browser_hover 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Termux Browser Pilot:

```json

  "tools": {
    "browser_hover": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "browser_hover_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
