Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why unarchive_zone is rated Medium
This is a Write operation because it updates the status field of an existing zone resource, changing it from archived to active. This is reversible (can be re-archived), so it does not qualify as Destructive.
From the tool's definition 'Restore an archived standard zone back to active status' — the tool modifies the state of a zone entity from archived to active, reversing a prior destructive action but not destructing data itself.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs unarchive_zone safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and AdButler, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For unarchive_zone, this is the rule to start with:
unarchive_zone 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 AdButler, apply this rule, and every unarchive_zone call is checked against it from then on.
