Why create_disk needs a policy

Creating a disk is a reversible modification operation (disks can be deleted) that allocates cloud infrastructure resources. This is Write-category rather than Execute or Destructive, as it is a standard create operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_disk' indicates creation of a persistent storage resource in Sakura Cloud. The server description confirms this is for 'manage Sakura Cloud infrastructure.' Sibling tools include other create_* operations (create_server, create_bridge,…

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_disk gives an agent:

How to control create_disk

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_disk": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_disk_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_disk stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Sacloud — 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.
