install_ob_operator

THE RISK

High Risk

Installing ob-operator provisions infrastructure components in a Kubernetes or cloud environment. This is an external operation that modifies the system state by deploying software, which qualifies as Execute. It has high severity because misuse could deploy unintended operator versions or compromise cluster management.

From the tool's definition 安装ob-operator (Install ob-operator) — triggers an external software installation operation

HOW TO CONTROL INSTALL_OB_OPERATOR

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Oceanbase, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for install_ob_operator:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "install_ob_operator": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "install_ob_operator_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

install_ob_operator stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Mcp Oceanbase — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
