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

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

## Why delete_monitor is rated Critical

Deletion of monitors cannot be undone and represents permanent loss of monitoring configuration. This qualifies as Destructive rather than Write (reversible modification). The blast radius is high—an agent with confused intent could eliminate critical API monitoring, disrupting observability and alerting capabilities.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'delete_monitor' explicitly performs deletion. Description states 'Delete a monitor', indicating irreversible removal of a monitoring resource in Postman."

## Use case

AI agents call delete_monitor to permanently remove resources in Postman, 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 Postman:

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