WHAT IT DOES

What arvan_ssh_run does on ArvanCloud MCP Server

AI agents invoke arvan_ssh_run to trigger actions in ArvanCloud 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 arvan_ssh_run is rated High

SSH command execution (arvan_ssh_run) is classified as Execute because it runs arbitrary commands on remote systems with effects determined by the command arguments. The blast radius is high because SSH access to cloud infrastructure can enable lateral movement, data exfiltration, or infrastructure sabotage.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'arvan_ssh_run' indicates execution of SSH commands on remote systems. The server description confirms it enables agents to manage ArvanCloud infrastructure including compute resources via 'natural language' provisioning and operations.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs arvan_ssh_run safely

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

arvan_ssh_run Rate-limited

arvan_ssh_run 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.
