WHAT IT DOES

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why gandi_domain_reset_authinfo needs a policy

This tool regenerates (replaces) the domain transfer authorization code (authinfo/EPP code). While not destructive in the sense of deleting data, it invalidates the existing auth code and creates a new one. This could disrupt an in-progress domain transfer or be misused to generate a code that could then be used to transfer a domain away from the owner.
