hashcat_gpu_crack · ikaliMCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What hashcat_gpu_crack does on ikaliMCP Server

AI agents invoke hashcat_gpu_crack to trigger actions in ikaliMCP Server. 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.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why hashcat_gpu_crack needs a policy

Hashcat is a tool that executes intensive password cracking operations against captured hashes. While it doesn't directly delete data, it executes external processes (GPU-accelerated computation) to reverse cryptographic hashes and recover plaintext passwords.
