How to control starwind_add ↓

AI agents use starwind_add to create or update resources in Starwind UI MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Starwind UI MCP Server environment.

Medium Risk

The tool returns an installation command (write/modification operation), but the severity is low because: (1) installation commands are reversible through uninstallation, (2) the tool appears to only generate and return the command rather than directly execute it, (3) the blast radius is limited to the project dependencies being installed, which are typically expected modifications in development workflows.

From the tool's definition Generates the installation command for Starwind UI components. Validates component names and returns the correct CLI command based on the detected package manager.

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

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

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

starwind_add 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 Starwind UI MCP Server — 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.
