WHAT IT DOES

What device_stop does on 0click Insta

AI agents invoke device_stop to trigger actions in 0click Insta. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why device_stop is rated High

device_stop triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs device_stop safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 0click Insta, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For device_stop, this is the rule to start with:

device_stop Rate-limited

device_stop stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
