MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS
Critical Risk

The most dangerous WebDAV MCP Server tools

Destructive · High delete_entities This tool performs irreversible deletion operations on knowledge graph data. Destructive · High delete_observations This tool irreversibly deletes data (observations) from a persistent knowledge graph. Destructive · High delete_relations Deletion of relations from a knowledge graph cannot be undone and permanently removes structured data dependencies and connections. Destructive · High webdav_delete_remote_item Deletion of files or directories cannot be undone and represents permanent data loss.

18 of WebDAV MCP Server's 41 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control WebDAV MCP Server

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and WebDAV MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Deny destructive operations
{
  "delete_entities": {
    "deny_if": [
      {
        "conditions": [],
        "on_deny": "Blocked by default. Requires approval."
      }
    ]
  }
}

Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.

Rate limit write operations
{
  "add_observations": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "add_observations_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations
{
  "directory_tree": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "directory_tree_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.

  1. Create a free account and register WebDAV MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add these rules — paste them, or build them visually. Tune the limits to your setup.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about WebDAV MCP Server

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

Yes. The WebDAV MCP Server server exposes 4 destructive tools including delete_entities, delete_observations, delete_relations. These permanently remove resources with no undo. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.

How do I prevent bulk modifications through WebDAV MCP Server? +

The WebDAV MCP Server server has 13 write tools including add_observations, create_directory, create_entities. Set a rate limit in your policy -- for example, 10 calls per hour prevents an agent from making more than 10 modifications per hour. PolicyLayer enforces this at the gateway, before calls reach WebDAV MCP Server.

How many tools does the WebDAV MCP Server MCP server expose? +

41 tools across 3 categories: Destructive, Read, Write. 23 are read-only. 18 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I enforce a policy on WebDAV MCP Server? +

Register the WebDAV MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer, apply the suggested rules above (adjust the limits to your use case), and point your AI client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL instead of the server directly. Your agents keep the same tools; PolicyLayer evaluates every call against policy before it executes. Nothing to install, live in minutes.

Enforce policy on every WebDAV MCP Server tool call.

Deterministic rules across all 41 WebDAV MCP Server tools. Per-identity grants. Full audit log. Live in minutes. Nothing to install.
