MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous SentinelX Core MCP tools

Execute · Critical sentinel_exec This tool directly executes commands with no constraints specified. Execute · High sentinel_restart This tool executes a restart operation on services, which is an irreversible state-changing action that affects system availability and operation. Execute · High sentinel_script_run This tool executes scripts, which is an Execute category action. Execute · High sentinel_service This tool executes service actions on a SentinelX Core instance, which are operations whose effects depend on which specific service action is invoked.

12 of SentinelX Core MCP's 16 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control SentinelX Core MCP

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

Rate limit write operations

{
  "sentinel_edit": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "sentinel_edit_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "ping": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "ping_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 SentinelX Core MCP — 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 SentinelX Core MCP

How do I prevent bulk modifications through SentinelX Core MCP? +

The SentinelX Core MCP server has 8 write tools including sentinel_edit, sentinel_edit_upload_complete, sentinel_edit_upload_file. 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 SentinelX Core MCP.

How many tools does the SentinelX Core MCP server expose? +

16 tools across 3 categories: Execute, Read, Write. 4 are read-only. 12 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I enforce a policy on SentinelX Core MCP? +

Register the SentinelX Core 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 SentinelX Core MCP tool call.

Deterministic rules across all 16 SentinelX Core MCP tools. Per-identity grants. Full audit log. Live in minutes. Nothing to install.
