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

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

## Why generate_host_ssh_key is rated High

Generating a host SSH key is an active operation that triggers key generation on the server infrastructure. It modifies the server's cryptographic identity and security posture. This is not a simple read or reversible write — replacing or generating SSH host keys can disrupt existing connections and alter the server's trusted fingerprint, making it closer to Execute (triggering an external security operation).

From the tool's own definition: "Generate host SSH key"

## Use case

AI agents invoke generate_host_ssh_key to trigger actions in 1Panel 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches 1Panel MCP Server:

```json

          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
