MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

Critical Risk

The most dangerous CyPerf MCP Server tools

Destructive · High agents_delete Deletion is irreversible and destructive. Destructive · High configs_delete This tool permanently removes configurations with no undo capability. Destructive · High controllers_clear_ports Clearing port ownership forcibly removes existing assignments on a controller, disrupting active tests or configurations. Destructive · High diagnostics_delete This tool permanently removes diagnostic data with no undo mechanism.

52 of CyPerf MCP Server's 100 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control CyPerf MCP Server

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and CyPerf MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Deny destructive operations

{
  "agents_delete": {
    "deny_if": [
      {
        "conditions": [],
        "on_deny": "Blocked by default. Requires approval."
      }
    ]
  }
}

Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.

Rate limit write operations

{
  "agents_release": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "agents_release_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "agents_export_files": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "agents_export_files_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.

Create a free account and register CyPerf MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add these rules — paste them, or build them visually. Tune the limits to your setup.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about CyPerf MCP Server

Can an AI agent delete data through the CyPerf MCP Server MCP server? +

Yes. The CyPerf MCP Server server exposes 12 destructive tools including agents_delete, configs_delete, controllers_clear_ports. These permanently remove resources with no undo. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.

How do I prevent bulk modifications through CyPerf MCP Server? +

The CyPerf MCP Server server has 29 write tools including agents_release, agents_set_ntp, agents_update. Set a rate limit in your policy -- for example, 10 calls per hour prevents an agent from making more than 10 modifications per hour. PolicyLayer enforces this at the gateway, before calls reach CyPerf MCP Server.

How many tools does the CyPerf MCP Server MCP server expose? +

100 tools across 3 categories: Destructive, Read, Write. 48 are read-only. 52 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I enforce a policy on CyPerf MCP Server? +

Register the CyPerf MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer, apply the suggested rules above (adjust the limits to your use case), and point your AI client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL instead of the server directly. Your agents keep the same tools; PolicyLayer evaluates every call against policy before it executes. Nothing to install, live in minutes.

Enforce policy on every CyPerf MCP Server tool call.

Deterministic rules across all 100 CyPerf MCP Server tools. Per-identity grants. Full audit log. Live in minutes. Nothing to install.
