Get users with most HWID devices

How to control hwid_top_users ↓

AI agents call hwid_top_users to retrieve information from Remnawave without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves and displays user data (specifically HWID device counts) for analytics or monitoring purposes. It is a read-only query operation with no ability to create, modify, delete, or execute actions. The blast radius if misused is minimal—an attacker gains visibility into which users have the most hardware IDs, which is informational but not directly damaging.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'hwid_top_users' and description 'Get users with most HWID devices' indicate a query/retrieval operation that fetches aggregated user statistics without modification or side effects.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access hwid_top_users 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 hwid_top_users:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "hwid_top_users": {}
  }
}

hwid_top_users is read-only, so it stays allowed — but 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.
