WHAT IT DOES

What delete_prompt does on Portkey Admin

AI agents call delete_prompt to permanently remove resources in Portkey Admin, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why delete_prompt is rated Critical

The tool irreversibly deletes data (prompts and all versions) with immediate breaking effects on dependent systems. The explicit statement 'This cannot be undone' and warning about breaking callers confirms destructive intent.

From the tool's definition 'Delete a prompt and all its versions by id. This cannot be undone, immediately breaks callers using the slug'

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete_prompt safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Portkey Admin, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_prompt, this is the rule to start with:

delete_prompt Hidden

delete_prompt is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.

FAQ

Questions about delete_prompt

What does the delete_prompt tool do? +

Delete a prompt and all its versions by id. This cannot be undone, immediately breaks callers using the slug, and should only be used after checking list_prompt_versions or confirming you do not need an audit trail. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Portkey Admin MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on delete_prompt? +

Register the Portkey Admin MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_prompt: 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 Portkey Admin. Nothing to install.

What risk level is delete_prompt? +

delete_prompt is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit delete_prompt? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_prompt 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.

How do I block delete_prompt completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_prompt. 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.

What MCP server provides delete_prompt? +

delete_prompt is provided by the Portkey Admin MCP server (codeswhat/portkey-admin-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
