WHAT IT DOES

What set_password does on Deloc

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

RISK

Why set_password is rated Medium

This tool modifies the security configuration of a deployed app by setting, changing, or removing password protection. This is a reversible write operation — the password can be set again if removed. However, misuse could expose a previously protected app to the public, making the blast radius medium.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs set_password safely

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

set_password Rate-limited

set_password 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.
