Why VPS_resetHostnameV1 is rated Medium
This tool modifies the hostname and PTR record of a VPS instance, which is a configuration change. While it resets to defaults (implying reversibility — you could set a custom hostname again), it does alter live server configuration. It falls under Write as it modifies data reversibly. The blast radius is medium since changing hostname/PTR can affect DNS resolution and server identity but is recoverable.

The rule that runs VPS_resetHostnameV1 safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Hostinger Api, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For VPS_resetHostnameV1, this is the rule to start with:
VPS_resetHostnameV1 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 Api, apply this rule, and every VPS_resetHostnameV1 call is checked against it from then on.
