RISK

Why disable_user is rated Medium

This tool modifies account status reversibly rather than irreversibly destroying data, so it falls under Write rather than Destructive. However, it carries high severity because disabling a user account is a significant administrative action that could block legitimate access, affect business continuity, and requires admin privileges.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Disable a Nextcloud user account (prevents login but preserves data)' — this modifies user account state reversibly (disabling is not permanent deletion, and data is preserved).

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.
