Ban an IP address from accessing the Minecraft server.
AI agents call ban_ip to permanently remove resources in OPanel MCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Banning an IP address is a blocking/denial-of-access action that is not easily reversible and can affect all players connecting from that IP. It permanently restricts access, placing it in the Destructive category with high severity due to the potential for widespread impact if misused (e.g., banning a shared or dynamic IP could affect many legitimate users).

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Ban an IP address from accessing the Minecraft server. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the OPanel MCP MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the OPanel MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ban_ip: 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 OPanel MCP. Nothing to install.
ban_ip is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ban_ip 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 ban_ip. 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.
ban_ip is provided by the OPanel MCP server (opanel-mc/opanel-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
