Why setup_playwright_tests needs a policy

The tool generates (creates) Playwright E2E test configuration files, container setups, and CI/CD pipeline files. This is a Write operation as it creates new files/configurations. It does not execute tests or delete anything — it sets up the scaffolding. Severity is medium because misconfigured CI/CD or container setups could affect deployment pipelines.

How to control setup_playwright_tests

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "setup_playwright_tests": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "setup_playwright_tests_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

setup_playwright_tests stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Documcp — 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.
