Why delete_project is rated Critical
This tool performs an irreversible deletion operation on a project. Although the immediate action sets a hidden flag rather than purging data, it is coupled with a DeleteAppJob that removes the project from active use and triggers background cleanup/deletion logic. This constitutes a destructive action that cannot be undone without data recovery mechanisms outside the tool's scope.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_project' and description states it marks a project as hidden (hidden=true) and triggers a background DeleteAppJob, indicating irreversible deletion of project data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs delete_project safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and QuintaDB, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_project, this is the rule to start with:
delete_project is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect QuintaDB, apply this rule, and every delete_project call is checked against it from then on.
