## Why wavexis_new_tab is rated High

This tool executes a browser action with side effects that depend on execution context. While creating a tab is reversible and relatively benign, it is an Execute category action per the classification rules: it 'runs code, shell commands, browser actions, or triggers external operations.' The severity is medium because an agent misusing this could open many tabs to exhaust resources or navigate to malicious sites,…

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'wavexis_new_tab' and description 'Create a new browser tab' indicate direct browser automation that triggers an external operation (tab creation)."

## Use case

AI agents invoke wavexis_new_tab 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Wavexis:

```json
