Get information about the display: resolution, scale factor, and coordinate space.
AI agents call computer_display_info to retrieve information from Computer Use MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves display metadata (resolution, scale factor, coordinate space) with no side effects. It is purely a read/query operation.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get information about the display: resolution, scale factor, and coordinate space. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Computer Use MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Computer Use MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for computer_display_info: 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 Computer Use MCP Server. Nothing to install.
computer_display_info 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 computer_display_info 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 computer_display_info. 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.
computer_display_info is provided by the Computer Use MCP Server MCP server (sebastianbaltes/claude_code_computer_use_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
