What wavexis_grant_permission does on Wavexis
AI agents invoke wavexis_grant_permission to trigger actions in Wavexis. 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.
Why wavexis_grant_permission is rated High
Granting browser permissions changes the browser's security posture by enabling capabilities like geolocation tracking or notifications. This is an external operation that triggers a security-relevant state change in the browser environment. It doesn't merely read or write data, but actively modifies what a site is allowed to do, which could enable further privacy violations or attacks.

The rule that runs wavexis_grant_permission safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Wavexis, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For wavexis_grant_permission, this is the rule to start with:
wavexis_grant_permission 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Wavexis, apply this rule, and every wavexis_grant_permission call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Wavexis MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for wavexis_grant_permission: 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 Wavexis. Nothing to install.
wavexis_grant_permission 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 wavexis_grant_permission 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 wavexis_grant_permission. 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.
