What vps_reset_hostname does on Hostinger
AI agents use vps_reset_hostname to create or update resources in Hostinger, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Hostinger environment.
Why vps_reset_hostname is rated Medium
Resetting a hostname modifies the server's configuration by reverting it to a default value. This is a reversible write operation (the hostname can be changed again), but misuse could cause connectivity or identification issues for the VPS.

The rule that runs vps_reset_hostname 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_reset_hostname, this is the rule to start with:
vps_reset_hostname 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Hostinger, apply this rule, and every vps_reset_hostname call is checked against it from then on.
