## Why VPS_startProjectV1 is rated High

This tool executes a Docker Compose operation that starts services/containers. While not destructive and not creating permanent data changes, it triggers external computational operations whose side effects depend on the configuration and nature of the services being started. This falls under Execute category as it runs operations whose consequences are determined by arguments and external state.

From the tool's own definition: "Starts all services in a Docker Compose project, brings up containers in dependency order. This triggers external operations (container startup) whose effects depend on which services are defined in the project."

## Use case

AI agents invoke VPS_startProjectV1 to trigger actions in Hostinger Api. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
