AI agents may call delete_account to permanently remove or destroy resources in BorealHost. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so delete_account only ever does what you allow.

What does the delete_account tool do? +

Permanently anonymize the account. Cancels subscriptions, deactivates keys. WARNING: This is irreversible. The account will be soft-deleted and all personal data anonymized. All sites will be decommissioned. Requires: API key with admin scope. Returns: {"success": true, "message": "Account anonymized"}. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the BorealHost MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on delete_account? +

Register the BorealHost MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_account: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches BorealHost. Nothing to install.

What risk level is delete_account? +

delete_account is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit delete_account? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_account rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block delete_account completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_account. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides delete_account? +

delete_account is provided by the BorealHost MCP server (pypi:borealhost-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every BorealHost tool call.
