What remove_annotation does on FeatureBoard
AI agents call remove_annotation to permanently remove resources in FeatureBoard, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why remove_annotation is rated Critical
The tool permanently removes/deletes an annotation, which is an irreversible destructive action. While annotations may be considered minor data, the operation cannot be undone once performed.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs remove_annotation safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FeatureBoard, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For remove_annotation, this is the rule to start with:
remove_annotation is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect FeatureBoard, apply this rule, and every remove_annotation call is checked against it from then on.

remove_annotation is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the remove_annotation 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for remove_annotation. 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.
remove_annotation is provided by the FeatureBoard MCP server (https://github.com/valentil/featureboard-mcp/releases/download/v0.7/featureboard.plugin). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
