# delete_prompt

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.

## Facts

- Tool: `delete_prompt`
- Server: Portkey Admin (`codeswhat/portkey-admin-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/codeswhat-portkey-admin-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/CodesWhat/portkey-admin-mcp
- Risk category: Destructive (Critical risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Hidden

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "delete_prompt",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## 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 own definition: "'Delete a prompt and all its versions by id. This cannot be undone, immediately breaks callers using the slug'"

## Use case

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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Portkey Admin:

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