## Why discord_delete_role is rated Critical

Deleting a role is a destructive action that cannot be undone and affects all members who have that role assigned. While not as severe as deleting an entire guild or user data, it permanently removes role permissions and metadata. The action impacts server structure and member access controls, warranting high severity. Confidence is high due to explicit 'Delete' language in both name and description.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'discord_delete_role' and description 'Delete a role in a guild' explicitly indicate irreversible deletion of Discord role data."

## Use case

AI agents call discord_delete_role to permanently remove resources in Discord MCP Server, 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 MCP Server:

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