## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "remove_node",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why remove_node is rated Critical

Removing a node from a scene deletes the node and its properties/children permanently (unless the user has not saved). This is an irreversible destructive action that cannot be undone programmatically by the tool itself. While Godot's undo system may allow manual recovery, the tool's action is inherently destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'remove_node' with description 'Remove a node from a scene'. The verb 'remove' indicates deletion of a scene node, which is irreversible within the Godot editor context."

## Use case

AI agents call remove_node to permanently remove resources in Godot MCP, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Godot MCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "remove_node"
  ]
}
```
