What wavexis_video_action_overlay does on Wavexis
AI agents invoke wavexis_video_action_overlay 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_video_action_overlay is rated High
This tool modifies the behavior of an ongoing video recording process (toggling an action overlay), which constitutes triggering an external operation with side effects on the recording session. It's not purely read-only, not destructive, and not financial. Execute is the most appropriate category as it controls/manipulates an active browser automation operation.
From the tool's definition 'Enable or disable action overlay on the video recording' — triggers an external operation modifying the state of an active video recording session
