Handle JavaScript Dialog

browser_handle_dialog
Destructive

Manage browser dialogs by setting accept or dismiss actions before they appear, then trigger the dialog and inspect the resulting navigation or state changes.

Instructions

Use when an alert, confirm, prompt, or beforeunload dialog blocks or changes the browser reproduction. Preconditions: configure the intended accept or dismiss behavior before the dialog appears. Next: trigger the dialog and inspect the resulting action, navigation, or state. Sensitivity: accepting prompts or confirmations can submit text, authorize actions, or mutate application state.

Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Adds context beyond annotations (destructiveHint=true) by noting that accepting prompts can submit text, authorize actions, or mutate state. No contradiction with annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Three sentences with front-loaded purpose and clear structure. Slightly verbose but no redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Adequate for a simple 3-param tool with output schema, but missing parameter explanations in description reduces completeness.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

No parameter descriptions in schema (0% coverage) and description does not explain 'once', 'action', or 'promptText' meaning, leaving agents to infer from enum values and type alone.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description specifies the tool handles JavaScript dialogs (alert, confirm, prompt, beforeunload) that block or change browser reproduction, clearly distinguishing it from navigation and interaction siblings.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Provides preconditions (configure behavior before dialog appears) and next steps (trigger dialog and inspect result), but lacks explicit when-not-to-use or alternative tools.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
