What tamper_remove_file_deny does on Aapanel
AI agents call tamper_remove_file_deny to permanently remove resources in Aapanel, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why tamper_remove_file_deny is rated Critical
Removing tamper protection is an irreversible security configuration change that exposes files/directories to modification or deletion. Once protection is removed, the previously secured data could be altered or destroyed, and the security posture cannot be automatically restored. This action cannot be undone without manually re-applying protection.
