WHAT IT DOES

What vibecontrols_tunnels_start does on Vibecontrols

AI agents invoke vibecontrols_tunnels_start to trigger actions in Vibecontrols. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why vibecontrols_tunnels_start is rated High

vibecontrols_tunnels_start triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs vibecontrols_tunnels_start safely

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

vibecontrols_tunnels_start Rate-limited

vibecontrols_tunnels_start stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
