Get SSH connection configuration for an environment.
AI agents call kinsta.environments.ssh.config to retrieve information from Kinsta MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves SSH configuration data (hostname, port, credentials reference, etc.) needed to connect to an environment. It performs a GET-like operation that queries and returns existing configuration without side effects, modifying data, executing commands, or triggering external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'kinsta.environments.ssh.config' and description 'Get SSH connection configuration for an environment' indicate retrieval of SSH connection details without modification or execution of commands.

Get SSH connection configuration for an environment. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Kinsta MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Kinsta MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for kinsta.environments.ssh.config: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Kinsta MCP Server. Nothing to install.
kinsta.environments.ssh.config is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the kinsta.environments.ssh.config rule in your PolicyLayer 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 PolicyLayer policy for kinsta.environments.ssh.config. 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.
kinsta.environments.ssh.config is provided by the Kinsta MCP Server MCP server (jacob-hartmann/kinsta-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
