# delete_application Delete an application from CyberArk Privilege Cloud. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `delete_application`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/delete-application ## Facts - Tool: `delete_application` - Server: CyberArk Privilege Cloud MCP Server (`aaearon/mcp-privilege-cloud`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud.md - Homepage: https://github.com/aaearon/mcp-privilege-cloud - Risk category: Destructive (Critical risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Hidden ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "delete_application", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why delete_application is rated Critical This tool permanently removes an application configuration from the CyberArk system without explicit mention of reversibility (e.g., soft delete, archive, or restore capability). In a PAM context, deleting an application could break integrations, remove authentication methods, and disrupt access controls. The action cannot be undone without administrative recovery procedures, making it destructive. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'delete_application' combined with description 'Delete an application from CyberArk Privilege Cloud' explicitly indicates irreversible removal of an application object from a privileged access management system." ## Use case AI agents call delete_application to permanently remove resources in CyberArk Privilege Cloud MCP Server, 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 CyberArk Privilege Cloud MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "hide": [ "delete_application" ] } ``` ## Other tools on CyberArk Privilege Cloud MCP Server (52) - `deactivate_target_platform` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/deactivate-target-platform.md - `delete_account` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/delete-account.md - `delete_application_auth_method` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/delete-application-auth-method.md - `delete_safe` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/delete-safe.md - `delete_target_platform` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/delete-target-platform.md - `remove_safe_member` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/remove-safe-member.md - `import_platform_package` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/import-platform-package.md - `reconcile_account_password` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/reconcile-account-password.md - `verify_account_password` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/verify-account-password.md - `export_platform` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/export-platform.md - `analyze_account_distribution` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/analyze-account-distribution.md - `count_accounts_by_criteria` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/count-accounts-by-criteria.md - `count_sessions` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/count-sessions.md - `filter_accounts_by_environment` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/filter-accounts-by-environment.md - `filter_accounts_by_management_status` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/filter-accounts-by-management-status.md - `filter_accounts_by_platform_group` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/filter-accounts-by-platform-group.md - `get_account_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-account-details.md - `get_application_auth_method_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-application-auth-method-details.md - `get_application_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-application-details.md - `get_applications_stats` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-applications-stats.md - `get_platform_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-platform-details.md - `get_platform_statistics` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-platform-statistics.md - `get_safe_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-safe-details.md - `get_safe_member_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-safe-member-details.md - `get_session_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-session-details.md - `get_session_statistics` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-session-statistics.md - `get_target_platform_statistics` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/get-target-platform-statistics.md - `group_accounts_by_platform` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/group-accounts-by-platform.md - `group_accounts_by_safe` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/group-accounts-by-safe.md - `list_accounts` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud/list-accounts.md - …and 22 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/aaearon-mcp-privilege-cloud.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
