WHAT IT DOES

What create_redis_database does on Coolify

AI agents use create_redis_database to create or update resources in Coolify, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Coolify environment.

RISK

Why create_redis_database is rated Medium

This tool creates a new Redis database instance, which is a reversible write operation that modifies the infrastructure state. While it adds a resource, it is not destructive (the database can be deleted later) and does not delete or overwrite existing data.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_redis_database' and description 'Create a Redis database' indicate a create operation that adds a new persistent resource to the infrastructure.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_redis_database 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_redis_database, this is the rule to start with:

create_redis_database Rate-limited

create_redis_database 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.
