# install_spf_records Install/update SPF records for all domains Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `install_spf_records`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/install-spf-records ## Facts - Tool: `install_spf_records` - Server: cPanel MCP Server (`0xhayd3n/cpanel-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/0xHayd3n/cPanel-MCP-Server - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "install_spf_records", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why install_spf_records is rated Medium This tool modifies DNS SPF records across all domains, which is a write operation—it creates or updates records that can be changed again. While not destructive (records can be removed or corrected), the impact is high because misconfigured SPF records can break email authentication for all domains, causing legitimate email to be rejected and potentially enabling spoofing if configured incorrectly. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'install_spf_records' and description 'Install/update SPF records for all domains' indicate creation and modification of DNS records (SPF). The word 'install/update' confirms reversible data modification rather than deletion." ## Use case AI agents use install_spf_records 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches cPanel MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "install_spf_records": { "limits": [ { "counter": "install_spf_records_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on cPanel MCP Server (163) - `clear_spam_box` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/clear-spam-box.md - `deauthorize_ssh_key` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/deauthorize-ssh-key.md - `delete_addon_domain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-addon-domain.md - `delete_autoresponder` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-autoresponder.md - `delete_cron_job` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-cron-job.md - `delete_dns_record` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-dns-record.md - `delete_email_account` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-email-account.md - `delete_email_filter` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-email-filter.md - `delete_email_forwarder` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-email-forwarder.md - `delete_file` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-file.md - `delete_ftp_account` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-ftp-account.md - `delete_git_repo` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-git-repo.md - `delete_mysql_database` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-mysql-database.md - `delete_mysql_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-mysql-user.md - `delete_parked_domain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-parked-domain.md - `delete_postgresql_database` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-postgresql-database.md - `delete_postgresql_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-postgresql-user.md - `delete_redirect` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-redirect.md - `delete_ssh_key` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-ssh-key.md - `delete_ssl_certificate` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-ssl-certificate.md - `delete_subdomain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/delete-subdomain.md - `disinfect_files` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/disinfect-files.md - `kill_ftp_session` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/kill-ftp-session.md - `remove_2fa` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/remove-2fa.md - `revoke_api_token` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/revoke-api-token.md - `revoke_mysql_privileges` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/revoke-mysql-privileges.md - `revoke_postgresql_privileges` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/revoke-postgresql-privileges.md - `unregister_passenger_app` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/unregister-passenger-app.md - `deploy_git_repo` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/deploy-git-repo.md - `disable_modsecurity` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/disable-modsecurity.md - …and 133 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
