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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why ssl_delete_cert is rated Critical

Deletion of SSL certificates is destructive—the action cannot be undone and removal could break HTTPS service for affected domains. This is more severe than Write (which is reversible) but does not involve financial transactions or code execution. High severity reflects the potential service disruption if a certificate is mistakenly deleted, particularly in production environments.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'ssl_delete_cert' and description 'Delete an SSL certificate from the panel' explicitly indicate irreversible deletion of a certificate resource."

## Use case

AI agents call ssl_delete_cert to permanently remove resources in Aapanel, 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 Aapanel:

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