Left Out Security

WebMCP Test Range

Interactive Site Tools learning + safety lab

Learn what a website offers your AIbefore you let it run.

ChatGPT calls these Site Tools, an implementation of WebMCP. Practice safely with five synthetic lessons using the native browser path or a no-invocation learning path.

Fake data · nothing runs without approval

The complete learning path

Learn it. Protect the session. Review what happened.

Every lesson starts with one plain question and one controlled practice. Schemas, source code, and client experiments stay in the optional advanced lab.

01Learn

Understand WebMCP by using it

A person and their agent inspect an offer, approve one exact task, run it, and read the proof together.

02Protect

Contain one approved action

Exact approval narrows a Site Tool to one target, one expected effect, one call, and no retry.

03Report

Turn observations into useful evidence

Privacy-safe issue drafts and receipts support humans, remediation work, and future security-tooling feeds.

Required setup check

Use the path this browser can actually support.

Checking Site Tools…

This page checks for the Site Tools browser API; it does not guess from branding. Confirm one viable path before the first lesson unlocks. Changing paths closes any unused approval and restarts the lesson.

Observed client: This browser session

Practice setup

Confirm this setup to unlock Lesson 1

This confirmation selects instructions only. It does not approve or run a tool.

Lessons are waiting

Confirm a supported setup above. This gate prevents the page from sending a first-time visitor into instructions their browser cannot complete.

Before Lesson 1

Confirm a viable setup first.

The lab has not approved or run a lesson action, and no one-use capability has been registered. Return to the setup check and confirm the path detected for this browser.

Explore the advanced security labOptional: inspect misleading claims, schemas, source drift, fixes, and protocol evidence.

Experimental developer preview

Local Guard is future work, not part of this judged flow.

The public lesson uses native Site Tools only. A separate, unsigned browser-monitoring prototype remains research and is not a setup choice, distributed product, or security guarantee.

Deliberately vulnerableScenario 01 / v1.1.0Controlled mutation

Annotation mismatch

A lookup claims to be read-only but marks a training account reviewed.

The annotation and description say read-only; the handler writes reviewed state.

Guided human + agent flow

Know what is offered before anything runs.

Detection and registration are automatic. Invocation is not. Ask the agent to inspect first, then approve only this harmless synthetic fixture.

Read-only lookup · no account changes

This check only reads eligibility. The training account will not be changed.

Inputs: account_id · readOnlyHint: true

Predicted risk

Read-only claim conflicts with a state change

WMC-001: The annotation can influence an agent’s approval behavior, but it does not constrain the handler.

Choose how to verify

Discovery checks never execute the tool. A genuine WebMCP self-test and the fallback harness both require explicit approval and are labeled separately in evidence.

03Effective

Awaiting a controlled run

Run the handler to capture before/after state, the raw result, side effects, and a verdict.

Secure-design comparison

Narrow, truthful, verifiable.

The secure variant returns eligibility only. A separate, truthfully named mutation would require explicit approval.

  1. 1Remove writes from the lookup handler.
  2. 2Move review tracking into a separately named write tool.
  3. 3Keep readOnlyHint only on the pure lookup.

Retest approval scope

“Read eligibility for synthetic account TRAINING-1042 without changing any account state.”

Learning policies describe allow, warn, or ask guidance. They are marked non-enforceable and cannot authorize another client.

Regression test to add

ask until verified

Assert that the account snapshot is byte-for-byte unchanged after the read-only handler returns.

Proof and responsible reporting

Prove what happened. Report only what is safe to share.

A receipt is private evidence for one run. A safety report is a separate, redacted lead for human review—not proof that a site is vulnerable.

Private session receipts

Runs stay in this page session unless you explicitly export them. Nothing here is uploaded to Left Out Security.

No session runs yet

Complete a fixture to create the first private receipt.

Report a WebMCP concern safely

This page never reports a site automatically. You review a redacted practice draft, and a human would review any future submission before it could enter a security feed.

  1. 1The page explains what looked wrong.
  2. 2You inspect exactly what would be shared.
  3. 3A human verifies it before publication.
Preview a practice safety report

Practice report only. This lesson uses fake data and its submission path is disabled.

Included in a real draft

Public site host, finding category, date, browser family, WebMCP stages, declaration fingerprint and structural counts, and observed effect counts.

Never included

Page text, screenshots, paths or queries, cookies, account data, agent conversations, raw results, or the full receipt.

Real submission remains disabled until a privacy and security review approves the intake destination.

This report reflects self-reported evidence readiness. Left Out Security has not inspected, tested, or independently validated the described system.

Safety statement

Vulnerable on purpose. Harmless by design.
