Move the mouse cursor to the specified coordinates
AI agents invoke move_mouse to trigger actions in Mcp Autogui Multinode. 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.
Moving the mouse cursor is a UI interaction/operation that can trigger hover effects, tooltips, or other UI state changes in external applications. It's an active control operation over the desktop environment, fitting the Execute category (triggers external operations).
From the tool's definition Move the mouse cursor to the specified coordinates
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access move_mouse gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Autogui Multinode, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for move_mouse:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"move_mouse": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "move_mouse_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}move_mouse 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.
Free to start. No card required.
Move the mouse cursor to the specified coordinates. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Mcp Autogui Multinode MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Mcp Autogui Multinode MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for move_mouse: 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 Mcp Autogui Multinode. Nothing to install.
move_mouse is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the move_mouse 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 move_mouse. 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.
move_mouse is provided by the Mcp Autogui Multinode MCP server (stonehill-2345/mcp-autogui-multinode). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Mcp Autogui Multinode, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
