delete_mcp_connection

// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents may call delete_mcp_connection to permanently remove or destroy resources in Clevername. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

// WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON DELETE_MCP_CONNECTION

Without a policy, an AI agent could call delete_mcp_connection in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Clevername. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

// RECOMMENDED POLICY
