WHAT IT DOES

What remove_nic_from_vm does on CloudStack MCP Server

AI agents call remove_nic_from_vm 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.

RISK

Why remove_nic_from_vm is rated Critical

Removing a NIC from a VM is a destructive operation: it severs network connectivity for that interface, and the removal itself cannot be trivially undone (re-adding a NIC may not restore the same configuration, IP assignments, etc.). Given the blast radius — potential loss of network access to a running VM — severity is high.

From the tool's definition 'Remove network interface from virtual machine' — removing a NIC is an irreversible network configuration change that disconnects the VM from a network segment

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs remove_nic_from_vm 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_nic_from_vm, this is the rule to start with:
