What remove_guest_os_mapping does on CloudStack MCP Server
AI agents call remove_guest_os_mapping to permanently remove resources in CloudStack MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why remove_guest_os_mapping is rated Critical
The tool removes (deletes) a guest OS mapping, which is a configuration that maps guest operating systems to hypervisor types. This deletion cannot be undone and would break the ability to provision VMs with that OS type until the mapping is re-added. While not directly impacting running VMs, it is an irreversible infrastructure configuration change that affects system functionality.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'remove' which indicates deletion; description states 'Remove guest OS mapping' confirming irreversible deletion of a configuration mapping.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs remove_guest_os_mapping 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 remove_guest_os_mapping, this is the rule to start with:
remove_guest_os_mapping is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect CloudStack MCP Server, apply this rule, and every remove_guest_os_mapping call is checked against it from then on.
