Why puppeteer_evaluate_in_frame needs a policy

This tool allows arbitrary JavaScript execution within a browser frame context. While not destructive by itself (the frame state is typically ephemeral), it enables an AI agent to run any code the frame can access, potentially including exfiltration of sensitive data from web pages, manipulation of page content, or triggering unintended side effects.

From the tool's definition Execute JavaScript in a specific frame — the description explicitly states code execution capability. JavaScript evaluation in browser frames can interact with the DOM, trigger network requests, modify page state, and perform arbitrary operations depending on…

POLICY

How to control puppeteer_evaluate_in_frame

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "puppeteer_evaluate_in_frame": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "puppeteer_evaluate_in_frame_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

puppeteer_evaluate_in_frame 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.

Create a free account and register Claude TypeScript MCP Servers — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
