WHAT IT DOES

What update_wordpress does on 20i MCP Server

AI agents invoke update_wordpress to trigger actions in 20i MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why update_wordpress is rated High

Updating WordPress triggers an external operation that modifies the WordPress installation by replacing files and potentially altering the database schema. This is more than a simple write — it executes an upgrade process that can have broad side effects (plugin/theme compatibility breakage, downtime, irreversible schema migrations).

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs update_wordpress safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 20i MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For update_wordpress, this is the rule to start with:

update_wordpress Rate-limited

update_wordpress stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
