WHAT IT DOES

What clone_domain does on Linode MCP Server

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

RISK

Why clone_domain is rated Medium

Cloning a domain creates a new resource (a copy of an existing domain) without destroying the original. This is a reversible write/create operation — the clone can be deleted later. No code is executed, no data is irreversibly destroyed, and no financial transaction is made.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs clone_domain safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Linode MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For clone_domain, this is the rule to start with:

clone_domain Rate-limited

clone_domain 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.
