WHAT IT DOES

What mikrotik_test_dns_query does on MikroTik Cursor MCP

AI agents invoke mikrotik_test_dns_query to trigger actions in MikroTik Cursor MCP. 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.

RISK

Why mikrotik_test_dns_query is rated High

Performing a DNS query is an active network operation that sends packets to DNS servers and retrieves results. It has no persistent side effects but does trigger an external operation (DNS resolution), making it Execute rather than pure Read. The blast radius is low since it only queries DNS and cannot modify configuration.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs mikrotik_test_dns_query safely

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

mikrotik_test_dns_query Rate-limited

mikrotik_test_dns_query 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.
