Destructive tools (Notes) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.

One command. Full control.

Intercept sits between your agent and Asana. Every tool call checked against your policy before it executes — so your agent can do its job without breaking things.

Can an AI agent delete data through the Asana MCP server? +

Yes. The Asana server exposes 1 destructive tools including Notes. These permanently remove resources with no undo. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.

How many tools does the Asana MCP server expose? +

2 tools across 2 categories: Destructive, Read. 1 are read-only. 1 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I add Intercept to my Asana setup? +

One line change. Instead of running the Asana server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c asana.yaml -- npx -y @@roychri/mcp-server-asana. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/asana and adjust the limits to match your use case.
