redeploy_project · Coolify MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What redeploy_project does on Coolify

AI agents invoke redeploy_project to trigger actions in Coolify. 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 redeploy_project needs a policy

Redeploying all applications in a project triggers external deployment operations across multiple services simultaneously. This is an Execute-category action with high severity because misuse could cause widespread service disruption, downtime, or unintended rollouts across an entire project's application fleet.

Verdict

redeploy_project Rate-limited

redeploy_project stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
