Delete one saved asset by id. Destructive — confirm with the user before calling. OAuth callers can only delete saves they created themselves (Linear model — see /assets UI for org-admin override).

AI agents may call delete_saved_asset to permanently remove or destroy resources in Heista. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call delete_saved_asset in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Heista. There is no undo for destructive operations. PolicyLayer blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.
Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

Delete one saved asset by id. Destructive — confirm with the user before calling. OAuth callers can only delete saves they created themselves (Linear model — see /assets UI for org-admin override). API-key callers are treated as org-trusted and can delete on behalf of any creator in the workspace. Cleans up the storage object for private VISUALS/MOTION saves.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Heista MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Heista MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_saved_asset: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Heista. Nothing to install.
delete_saved_asset is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_saved_asset rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_saved_asset. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
delete_saved_asset is provided by the Heista MCP server (https://www.heista.co/api/mcp/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
