## Why delete_table_column is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes table columns from a Google Docs document. Column deletion cannot be undone by the tool itself and results in irreversible data loss. While Google Docs has undo functionality, the tool's primary function is destructive in nature. The blast radius is high because an agent misusing this could delete critical columns containing important data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'delete_table_column' and description states 'Delete columns from a table in a google docs document.' The verb 'delete' indicates irreversible removal of data."

## Use case

AI agents call delete_table_column to permanently remove resources in Mcp Google Docs, 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 Mcp Google Docs:

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