Why delete_resources is rated Critical

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete_resources safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Acronis Platform, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_resources, this is the rule to start with:

delete_resources Hidden

delete_resources is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
