Why analyze_domain needs a policy

This tool retrieves and examines DNS configuration information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It purely queries and analyzes data, fitting the Read category profile. The severity is low because analyzing DNS configurations poses minimal risk even if misused—it cannot alter infrastructure, delete data, move funds, or execute operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'analyze_domain' and description 'Analyze DNS configuration for a domain and provide recommendations' indicate read-only analysis of existing DNS data with no modifications or side effects.

How to control analyze_domain

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "analyze_domain": {}
  }
}

analyze_domain is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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