Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs update_server_ip safely

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

update_server_ip Rate-limited

update_server_ip 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.

        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Timeweb, apply this rule, and every update_server_ip call is checked against it from then on.
