WHAT IT DOES

What kill_ftp_session does on cPanel MCP Server

AI agents call kill_ftp_session to permanently remove resources in cPanel MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why kill_ftp_session is rated Critical

Killing/terminating an active session is an irreversible action — the session cannot be restored once ended. This disrupts an ongoing connection, which classifies it as Destructive. Severity is medium as it affects a single active FTP session but could interrupt file transfers or operations in progress.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs kill_ftp_session 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 kill_ftp_session, this is the rule to start with:

kill_ftp_session Hidden

kill_ftp_session is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
