click · Brave Browser MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What click does on Brave Browser MCP Server

A click action triggers browser interactions whose effects depend entirely on what is clicked — could submit forms, trigger purchases, delete data, navigate pages, or execute scripts. This is a browser automation Execute action with high blast radius. Confidence is slightly reduced because the description is empty, but context from the server and sibling tools strongly implies browser control.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'click' on a server that 'gives AI agents full control over Brave Browser'; sibling tools include drag, fill_form, fill_input, handle_dialog — all browser automation actions.
