WHAT IT DOES

What remote_status does on Yaver

AI agents call remote_status 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.

RISK

Why remote_status is rated Low

This tool only queries and displays monitoring information about remote machines. It retrieves system status and resource metrics without any ability to modify infrastructure, execute commands, or cause side effects. This is a straightforward Read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool provides 'Dashboard of all remote machines' with status metrics (online/offline, CPU, memory, disk, containers) — pure data retrieval with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs remote_status safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Yaver, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For remote_status, this is the rule to start with:

remote_status Allowed

remote_status is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "remote_status": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Yaver, apply this rule, and every remote_status call is checked against it from then on.
