What create_git_repo does on cPanel MCP Server
AI agents use create_git_repo to create or update resources in cPanel MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your cPanel MCP Server environment.
Why create_git_repo is rated Medium
The tool creates a new Git repository, which is a write operation that creates new data structures and configuration in the cPanel environment. While repositories can be deleted, the creation itself is reversible through standard deletion procedures.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_git_repo' and description 'Create a new Git repository in cPanel' indicate creation of a new repository structure. This is a reversible write operation that creates data/configuration.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_git_repo safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and cPanel MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_git_repo, this is the rule to start with:
create_git_repo stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect cPanel MCP Server, apply this rule, and every create_git_repo call is checked against it from then on.
