Do you really need org-protocol for this purpose? I would suggest direct 
call of your function using --eval similar to `message-mailto` in 
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/etc/emacsclient-mail.desktop

I admit that it is tricky to safely pass an argument to emacsclient, see
https://debbugs.gnu.org/57752
#57752 28.1.91; emacsclient-mail.desktop doesn't work for me.

However instead of long Exec entry in the desktop file I would use a 
script with *single* %u argument. The reason is a Firefox bug that may 
cause lost of everything besides the command and the URI.
