# console_machines

List every machine running a Yaver agent (local Mac/Linux/Windows + Hetzner, AWS, GCP VPSes). Hybrid view across own-hardware and cloud.

Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `console_machines`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-kivanccakmak-yaver/console-machines

## Facts

- Tool: `console_machines`
- Server: Yaver (`yaver-cli`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-kivanccakmak-yaver.md
- Install: `npx -y yaver-cli`
- Homepage: https://github.com/kivanccakmak/yaver.io
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "console_machines",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why console_machines is rated Low

The tool queries and returns information about machines running Yaver agents across local and cloud infrastructure. It performs no state changes, does not execute commands on machines, and does not delete or modify data. The blast radius of misuse is limited to information disclosure about infrastructure inventory, which is a low-severity Read risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states 'List every machine' — a retrieval operation with no modification or execution. The verb 'list' is a canonical Read operation."

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

## Use case

AI agents call console_machines to retrieve information from Yaver without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "console_machines": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
