# import_vm Import virtual machine Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `import_vm`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/import-vm ## Facts - Tool: `import_vm` - Server: CloudStack MCP Server (`mozg31337/cloudstack-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/mozg31337/cloudstack-mcp-server - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "import_vm", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why import_vm is rated Medium Importing a VM creates a new virtual machine in the infrastructure, which is a reversible Write operation (the VM can be deleted). It is not Destructive because import does not delete or irreversibly overwrite data. It is not Execute because it doesn't run arbitrary code or trigger variable-outcome operations. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'import_vm' and description 'Import virtual machine' indicate creation or addition of a virtual machine resource to the CloudStack infrastructure." ## Use case AI agents use import_vm to create or update resources in CloudStack MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your CloudStack MCP Server environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches CloudStack MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "import_vm": { "limits": [ { "counter": "import_vm_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on CloudStack MCP Server (441) - `cancel_host_maintenance` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/cancel-host-maintenance.md - `delete_account` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-account.md - `delete_account_from_project` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-account-from-project.md - `delete_alerts` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-alerts.md - `delete_application_load_balancer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-application-load-balancer.md - `delete_bgp_peer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-bgp-peer.md - `delete_customer_gateway` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-customer-gateway.md - `delete_dhcp_option` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-dhcp-option.md - `delete_disk_offering` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-disk-offering.md - `delete_domain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-domain.md - `delete_egress_firewall_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-egress-firewall-rule.md - `delete_firewall_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-firewall-rule.md - `delete_global_load_balancer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-global-load-balancer.md - `delete_host` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-host.md - `delete_image_store` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-image-store.md - `delete_ip_forwarding_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-ip-forwarding-rule.md - `delete_ipv4_subnet_for_guest_network` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-ipv4-subnet-for-guest-network.md - `delete_ipv4_subnet_for_zone` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-ipv4-subnet-for-zone.md - `delete_ipv6_firewall_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-ipv6-firewall-rule.md - `delete_iso` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-iso.md - `delete_kubernetes_cluster` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-kubernetes-cluster.md - `delete_kubernetes_supported_version` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-kubernetes-supported-version.md - `delete_lb_health_check_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-lb-health-check-policy.md - `delete_lb_stickiness_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-lb-stickiness-policy.md - `delete_load_balancer_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-load-balancer-rule.md - `delete_network` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-network.md - `delete_network_acl` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-network-acl.md - `delete_network_acl_list` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-network-acl-list.md - `delete_network_device` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-network-device.md - `delete_network_offering` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server/delete-network-offering.md - …and 411 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/mozg31337-cloudstack-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
