WHAT IT DOES

What site_set_proxy does on Aapanel

AI agents use site_set_proxy to create or update resources in Aapanel, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Aapanel environment.

RISK

Why site_set_proxy is rated Medium

The 'set' action modifies site proxy configuration, which is a reversible write operation. Severity is high because misconfiguration could redirect traffic, expose credentials, or enable man-in-the-middle attacks, though the effect depends on the proxy target specified. Confidence is moderate due to the empty description and reliance on name interpretation in the context of a hosting control panel.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'site_set_proxy' indicates it configures proxy settings for a website. The verb 'set' signifies modification of configuration data. Description is empty, limiting precision.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs site_set_proxy safely

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

site_set_proxy Rate-limited

site_set_proxy 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.
