Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: Downloads and runs the
firefox-devtools-mcppackage from the npm registry vianpx. This package is an official component from Mozilla. - [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: Employs the
evaluate_scriptandevaluate_privileged_scripttools to run arbitrary JavaScript in both the page context and the Firefox internal system context. - [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: Supports a privileged context mode that enables the agent to access chrome-level contexts and modify browser preferences, which can bypass standard web-level restrictions.
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill ingests data from external websites, creating a surface where malicious content can manipulate agent instructions.
- Ingestion points: Navigation and element inspection via
navigate_pageandtake_snapshot(SKILL.md). - Boundary markers: The documentation warns about untrusted sites and recommends dedicated profiles, but lacks structured prompt isolation.
- Capability inventory: Includes tools like script execution, file writing for screenshots, and network capture.
- Sanitization: No specific filtering or escaping mechanisms for external web content are identified in the instructions.
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: Uses
npxto launch the MCP server and supports passing arbitrary Firefox binary paths and arguments through CLI flags.
