## Why hubspot_delete_contact is rated Critical

This tool performs an irreversible action on contact records. While soft deletes are technically recoverable by administrators, from the perspective of normal CRM operations and an AI agent's interaction model, deletion of contacts cannot be undone through the exposed API. The blast radius is significant: deleting contacts removes them from workflows, associations, communication histories, and business processes.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Archive (soft delete) a contact'. Even though it is a soft delete (archival rather than permanent hard delete), it irreversibly removes a contact from active use in the CRM system."

## Use case

AI agents call hubspot_delete_contact to permanently remove resources in HubSpot 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 HubSpot MCP Server:

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