Enable or disable Cloudflare CDN proxy for a site. When enabled (orange cloud): traffic goes through Cloudflare's CDN, gets caching, DDoS protection, and SSL termination at the edge.

AI agents use cloudflare_set_proxy to create or modify resources in BorealHost. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call cloudflare_set_proxy repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach BorealHost.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access cloudflare_set_proxy gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other write tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.
Enable or disable Cloudflare CDN proxy for a site. When enabled (orange cloud): traffic goes through Cloudflare's CDN, gets caching, DDoS protection, and SSL termination at the edge. When disabled (grey cloud): traffic goes directly to origin server. Requires: API key with write scope. Args: slug: Site identifier proxied: true to enable CDN proxy, false to disable Returns: {"domain": "my-site.borealhost.ai", "proxied": true, "ip": "1.2.3.4"}. It is categorised as a Write tool in the BorealHost MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the BorealHost MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for cloudflare_set_proxy: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches BorealHost. Nothing to install.
cloudflare_set_proxy is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the cloudflare_set_proxy rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for cloudflare_set_proxy. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
cloudflare_set_proxy is provided by the BorealHost MCP server (pypi:borealhost-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
