WHAT IT DOES

What task_get_info does on Aapanel

AI agents call task_get_info to retrieve information from Aapanel without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why task_get_info is rated Low

This tool retrieves information about background tasks without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a pure read operation analogous to 'get' or 'fetch' operations. The low severity reflects that querying task metadata poses minimal risk even if an AI misuses it—the worst outcome would be information disclosure about internal tasks.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'task_get_info' and description 'Get background task details' indicate data retrieval with no modification or side effects.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

task_get_info Allowed

task_get_info is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Aapanel, apply this rule, and every task_get_info call is checked against it from then on.
