What recover_volume does on CloudStack MCP Server
AI agents use recover_volume 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.
Why recover_volume is rated Medium
This tool recovers (restores) a deleted volume, making it a Write operation rather than Destructive since it reverses a deletion and restores data. The severity is high because recovering volumes affects critical storage infrastructure and could restore access to sensitive data or unintentionally modify the state of dependent systems.
From the tool's definition 'Recover deleted volume' - restores a previously deleted volume, which is a reversible Write operation that modifies infrastructure state by bringing back deleted storage resources.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs recover_volume safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and CloudStack MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For recover_volume, this is the rule to start with:
recover_volume stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect CloudStack MCP Server, apply this rule, and every recover_volume call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about recover_volume
Recover deleted volume. It is categorised as a Write tool in the CloudStack MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the CloudStack MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for recover_volume: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches CloudStack MCP Server. Nothing to install.
recover_volume is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the recover_volume rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for recover_volume. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
recover_volume is provided by the CloudStack MCP Server MCP server (mozg31337/cloudstack-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
