Even though the blast radius depends on which stream and entries are targeted, the destructive nature of deletion operations places this in the Destructive category with critical severity. An AI agent with access to this tool could permanently erase message broker data with no recovery path.

Register the Amazon MQ MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for stream_delete: 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 Amazon MQ MCP Server. Nothing to install.
stream_delete 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 stream_delete 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 stream_delete. 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.
stream_delete is provided by the Amazon MQ MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.amazon-mq-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
