How to control oc_devtools_url ↓

AI agents call oc_devtools_url to retrieve information from OpenChrome without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool only retrieves/reads a URL string (the DevTools inspector endpoint) for the current browser worker. It has no side effects, does not modify browser state, and cannot be misused to cause harm beyond information disclosure of a debug URL.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access oc_devtools_url gives an agent:

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "oc_devtools_url": {}
  }
}

oc_devtools_url is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register OpenChrome — 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.
