## Why discord_delete_channel is rated Critical

Deleting a channel is an irreversible action that removes all associated data (messages, settings, permissions) from the server. This cannot be undone and represents loss of data and communication history. While the tool requires a confirm=true parameter (a safety measure), the underlying action is still destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'discord_delete_channel' and description states 'Delete a channel'. The word 'Delete' combined with irreversible removal of a Discord channel classifies this as Destructive."

## Use case

AI agents call discord_delete_channel to permanently remove resources in Discord, 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 Discord:

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