Bulk enable selected hosts

How to control hosts_bulk_enable ↓

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

Medium Risk

This tool modifies host configuration by enabling them in bulk, which is a reversible Write operation (hosts can be disabled again). However, severity is elevated to 'high' rather than 'medium' because bulk operations on infrastructure hosts could disrupt service availability or enable unwanted access paths if misused by an AI agent without proper validation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'hosts_bulk_enable' and description 'Bulk enable selected hosts' indicates modification of host state across multiple resources. The 'bulk' qualifier suggests large-scale impact affecting multiple hosts simultaneously.

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

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

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

hosts_bulk_enable 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 Remnawave — 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.

What does the hosts_bulk_enable tool do? +

Bulk enable selected hosts. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Remnawave MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on hosts_bulk_enable? +

Register the Remnawave MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for hosts_bulk_enable: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Remnawave. Nothing to install.

What risk level is hosts_bulk_enable? +

hosts_bulk_enable is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit hosts_bulk_enable? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the hosts_bulk_enable rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block hosts_bulk_enable completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for hosts_bulk_enable. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides hosts_bulk_enable? +

hosts_bulk_enable is provided by the Remnawave MCP server (trackline/mcp-remnawave). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Remnawave tool call.
