WHAT IT DOES

What delete_measurement does on Businys

AI agents call delete_measurement to permanently remove resources in Businys, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why delete_measurement is rated Critical

This tool performs an irreversible deletion operation on measurement entries. Even though the blast radius is limited to a single measurement record rather than bulk data, deletion cannot be undone without external recovery mechanisms. This qualifies as Destructive rather than Write (which covers reversible modifications).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_measurement' and description states 'Delete a measurement entry.' The verb 'delete' explicitly indicates irreversible removal of data.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete_measurement safely

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

delete_measurement Hidden

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