Why create_cloud_token is rated Medium
This tool creates new cloud provider authentication tokens, which modifies the authentication/credential state of the system. While reversible (tokens can typically be deleted/revoked), creating tokens grants new access capabilities and could be misused by an agent to escalate privileges or establish persistent backdoors.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_cloud_token' and description states it will 'Create and validate a new cloud provider token.' The verb 'create' and mention of token generation indicate data creation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_cloud_token safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Coolify, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_cloud_token, this is the rule to start with:
create_cloud_token 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Coolify, apply this rule, and every create_cloud_token call is checked against it from then on.
