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

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

## Why group-delete is rated Critical

This tool permanently and irreversibly deletes an entire group (a Nostr NIP-29 group structure). Deletion cannot be undone, making it Destructive rather than Write. The blast radius is high because deleting an entire group affects all members and associated data. The confirmation requirement (groupId repetition) suggests awareness of severity but does not change the fundamental destructive nature.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'group-delete' and description states 'Delete an entire NIP-29 group' — the word 'Delete' combined with 'entire group' indicates irreversible removal of data."

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

## Use case

AI agents call group-delete to permanently remove resources in Nostr Bray, 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 Nostr Bray:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "group-delete"
  ]
}
```
