WHAT IT DOES

What restart_container does on WeChat Official Account MCP Server

AI agents invoke restart_container to trigger actions in WeChat Official Account MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why restart_container needs a policy

Restarting a container is an executable action that manipulates the state of external infrastructure. While not destructive (the container itself persists), it interrupts services and affects availability, making it Execute rather than Write. The severity is high because restarting a production container could disrupt WeChat Official Account services or other applications running in that environment.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'restart_container' with description '重启Docker容器' (restart Docker container). This directly restarts a running Docker container, triggering external operations whose effects depend on which container is targeted.
