WHAT IT DOES

What unlock_adom_workspace does on Fortimanager

AI agents use unlock_adom_workspace to create or update resources in Fortimanager, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Fortimanager environment.

RISK

Why unlock_adom_workspace is rated Medium

The tool modifies the lock status of an ADOM workspace, which is a reversible change to system state. This is a Write action rather than Destructive because unlocking is not irreversible and does not delete data. Severity is high because improper unlocking of security policy workspaces in FortiManager could allow unauthorized concurrent modifications to critical firewall configurations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'unlock_adom_workspace' indicates modification of workspace lock state. ADOM (Administrative Domain) workspace locks are management controls in FortiManager. Unlocking reverses a lock state, making it a state modification action.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs unlock_adom_workspace safely

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

unlock_adom_workspace Rate-limited

unlock_adom_workspace stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
