What vps_docker_delete does on Hostinger
AI agents call vps_docker_delete to permanently remove resources in Hostinger, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why vps_docker_delete is rated Critical
The 'delete' operation is irreversible and destroys data/infrastructure. Although the blast radius is scoped to a single Docker project (not the entire VPS or multiple projects), deleting a project cannot be undone and represents a destructive action.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete a Docker project' — this irreversibly removes a Docker project and its associated configuration.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs vps_docker_delete safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Hostinger, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For vps_docker_delete, this is the rule to start with:
vps_docker_delete is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Hostinger, apply this rule, and every vps_docker_delete call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about vps_docker_delete
Delete a Docker project. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Hostinger MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Hostinger MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for vps_docker_delete: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Hostinger. Nothing to install.
vps_docker_delete is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the vps_docker_delete rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for vps_docker_delete. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
vps_docker_delete is provided by the Hostinger MCP server (idugeni/hostinger-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
