# create_ftp_user Create an FTP user for a hosting package Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `create_ftp_user`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/create-ftp-user ## Facts - Tool: `create_ftp_user` - Server: 20i MCP Server (`cbrown35/20i-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/Cbrown35/20i-MCP - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "create_ftp_user", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_ftp_user is rated Medium Creating an FTP user is a reversible data creation operation (users can be deleted). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move funds. However, severity is high because an FTP user grants file system access to a hosting package; misconfiguration could allow unauthorized file access or modification of customer websites, with significant blast radius to website integrity and customer data. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_ftp_user' and description 'Create an FTP user for a hosting package' indicate creation of a new FTP user account, which is a write/creation operation." ## Use case AI agents use create_ftp_user to create or update resources in 20i MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your 20i MCP Server environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches 20i MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "create_ftp_user": { "limits": [ { "counter": "create_ftp_user_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on 20i MCP Server (301) - `deactivate_package` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/deactivate-package.md - `deactivate_vps` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/deactivate-vps.md - `delete_application` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/delete-application.md - `delete_cdn_security_headers` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/delete-cdn-security-headers.md - `delete_easy_builder_instance` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/delete-easy-builder-instance.md - `delete_hosting_package` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/delete-hosting-package.md - `delete_mssql_database` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/delete-mssql-database.md - `delete_package` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/delete-package.md - `manage_directories` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/manage-directories.md - `manage_wordpress_plugin` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/manage-wordpress-plugin.md - `purge_cdn_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/purge-cdn-cache.md - `rebuild_vps` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/rebuild-vps.md - `reinstall_software` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/reinstall-software.md - `reinstall_wordpress` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/reinstall-wordpress.md - `remove_country_block` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/remove-country-block.md - `remove_ip_block` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/remove-ip-block.md - `remove_mssql_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/remove-mssql-user.md - `remove_ssl_certificates` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/remove-ssl-certificates.md - `remove_stack_user_from_package` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/remove-stack-user-from-package.md - `remove_subdomain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/remove-subdomain.md - `reset_managed_vps_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/reset-managed-vps-profile.md - `restore_ftp_backup` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/restore-ftp-backup.md - `restore_snapshot` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/restore-snapshot.md - `shutdown_vps` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/shutdown-vps.md - `suspend_package` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/suspend-package.md - `activate_vps` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/activate-vps.md - `change_vps_root_password` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/change-vps-root-password.md - `clone_wordpress_staging` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/clone-wordpress-staging.md - `deploy_application` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/deploy-application.md - `deploy_website_complete` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp/deploy-website-complete.md - …and 271 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/cbrown35-20i-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
