- Homepage: https://github.com/CoWork-OS/CoWork-OS

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "domain_dns_add",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why domain_dns_add is rated Medium

Adding a DNS record is a reversible write operation that modifies domain settings. It is not destructive (records can be deleted/updated later), not financial, and not code execution. However, DNS misconfigurations could redirect traffic or disrupt services, warranting medium severity given the potential blast radius if an agent misconfigures critical DNS entries (e.g., MX, CNAME records).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'domain_dns_add' and description 'Add a DNS record to a domain' indicate creation of a new DNS record, which modifies domain configuration."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches CoWork OS:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "domain_dns_add": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "domain_dns_add_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
