- Risk category: Destructive (Critical risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 4 (2 required)
- Recommended policy verdict: Hidden

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `name` | string | yes | Animation name |
| `confirm` | boolean | no | Auto-approve this destructive action (skip the confirmation prompt) |
| `library` | string | no | Animation library name (default "") |
| `player_path` | string | yes | AnimationPlayer node path relative to the scene root |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "anim_delete",
    "arguments": {
      "name": "<name>",
      "player_path": "<player_path>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why anim_delete is rated Critical

This tool irreversibly removes animation data from a library. Despite the 'undoable' qualifier suggesting some undo mechanism exists, the core action is destructive deletion. The confirmation gate mitigates risk but does not change the fundamental category. In the hierarchy of severity, Destructive supersedes Write and other categories.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool description explicitly states 'Delete an Animation from an AnimationPlayer's library' and labels it 'DESTRUCTIVE'."

## Use case

AI agents call anim_delete to permanently remove resources in Breakpoint, 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 Breakpoint:

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