Trigger rolling restart of a deployment
Part of the Devops MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents invoke k8s__rollout_restart to trigger processes or run actions in Devops. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
k8s__rollout_restart can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

k8s__rollout_restart is one of the high-risk operations in Devops. For the full severity-focused view — only the high-risk tools with their recommended policies — see the breakdown for this server, or browse all high-risk tools across every MCP server.
Trigger rolling restart of a deployment. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Devops MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for k8s__rollout_restart. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Devops MCP server.
k8s__rollout_restart is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the k8s__rollout_restart rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for k8s__rollout_restart. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
k8s__rollout_restart is provided by the Devops MCP server (@notharshhaa/devops-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
