## Why vps_restore_backup is rated Critical

Restoring a backup is a destructive operation because it replaces the current live system state with an older snapshot, permanently discarding any changes, files, databases, or configurations made after the backup point. This cannot be undone and has a critical blast radius as it affects the entire VPS environment.

From the tool's own definition: "'Restore a backup' — restoring a backup overwrites the current state of the VPS irreversibly, destroying all data written since the backup was taken."

## Use case

AI agents call vps_restore_backup 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Hostinger:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "vps_restore_backup"
  ]
}
```
