What setAllRulesState does on Whistle
AI agents use setAllRulesState to create or update resources in Whistle, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Whistle environment.
Why setAllRulesState is rated Medium
This tool modifies the state of all proxy rules simultaneously (enabling or disabling them), which is a reversible write operation. However, the blast radius is high because toggling all rules at once could disrupt all proxied network traffic for the user.
From the tool's definition 控制所有规则的启用状态（启用/禁用）— controls the enabled/disabled state of ALL rules
Attacks that exploit this kind of access

setAllRulesState 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 Whistle, apply this rule, and every setAllRulesState call is checked against it from then on.
