WHAT IT DOES

What disable_user does on AIquila — Nextcloud MCP Server

AI agents use disable_user to create or update resources in AIquila — Nextcloud MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your AIquila — Nextcloud MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why disable_user is rated Medium

This tool modifies user account state reversibly by disabling login access while preserving data, fitting the Write category (creates or modifies data reversibly). Severity is high because disabling a user account impacts their access and workflow, but it is not destructive since the account and data remain intact and the action is undoable via re-enablement.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Disable[s] a Nextcloud user account' which modifies user state and access permissions. The operation is reversible (can be re-enabled) rather than irreversible deletion. Requires admin privileges indicating elevated impact.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs disable_user safely

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

disable_user Rate-limited

disable_user 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.
