What double_click does on uiautomator2 MCP Server

AI agents invoke double_click to trigger actions in uiautomator2 MCP Server. 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.

High Risk

Why double_click needs a policy

Based on the server context, double_click performs a UI interaction on an Android device (simulating a double-tap gesture). This constitutes executing a browser/UI action on an external system. The description is empty, lowering confidence, but the server's stated purpose of device automation and sibling tools like app_start/app_stop confirm this is a device control action.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'double_click' on a server described as enabling 'controlling Android devices using uiautomator2, enabling AI to automate tasks like tapping, swiping'

How to control double_click

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and uiautomator2 MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for double_click:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "double_click": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "double_click_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

double_click 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.

  1. Create a free account and register uiautomator2 MCP Server — 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.
