WHAT IT DOES

What create_session does on WeChat Article Reader MCP Server

AI agents invoke create_session to trigger actions in WeChat Article Reader MCP Server. 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 IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_session needs a policy

Creating a session in the context of a browser automation server means spinning up a new browser instance or browser context. This is an Execute-level action because it triggers external operations (launching/initializing browser automation), not merely writing data to a store. Misuse could spawn uncontrolled browser processes or be used to bypass rate limits/access controls.

From the tool's definition '创建一个新的会话' (Create a new session) — involves browser automation initialization as described in the server description ('through browser automation')
