WHAT IT DOES

What add_domain does on Webcake Storefront

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

RISK

Why add_domain is rated Medium

Adding a domain is a write operation that modifies site configuration. While not destructive (it's reversible by removing the domain), it has high severity because: (1) it changes the public identity and routing of a storefront, potentially redirecting traffic or enabling phishing if abused; (2) it affects all customers accessing the site; (3) DNS/ownership validation suggests infrastructure-level impact.

From the tool's definition The tool description states 'Attach a custom domain to the site. Triggers DNS/ownership validation.' This is a persistent modification to site configuration that creates a new association between the storefront and a domain name.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs add_domain safely

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

add_domain Rate-limited

add_domain 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.
