Add users to an internal squad

How to control squads_add_users ↓

AI agents use squads_add_users 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 creates or modifies group membership by adding users to a squad, which is a reversible write operation. It has moderate severity because unauthorized squad membership changes could affect access controls and user permissions within the VPN management system, but the action is not destructive, financial, or code-execution based.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'squads_add_users' and description 'Add users to an internal squad' indicate a create/modify operation that adds users to a group resource.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access squads_add_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 squads_add_users:

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

squads_add_users 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.
