WHAT IT DOES

What ping_dashboard does on Ha Nexus Agent

AI agents call ping_dashboard to retrieve information from Ha Nexus Agent without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why ping_dashboard is rated Low

Even though ping_dashboard only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs ping_dashboard safely

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

ping_dashboard Allowed

ping_dashboard is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "ping_dashboard": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ha Nexus Agent, apply this rule, and every ping_dashboard call is checked against it from then on.
