Why delete-custom-field needs a policy

This tool permanently removes a custom field from the GoHighLevel system. Deletion is irreversible and could impact data integrity across contacts, opportunities, and workflows that rely on that field. While not as critical as deleting primary records, the destructive nature and potential cascading effects warrant high severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete-custom-field' explicitly performs deletion of a custom field by ID. The verb 'delete' indicates irreversible removal of data.

How to control delete-custom-field

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GoHighLevel MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for delete-custom-field:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete-custom-field"
  ]
}

delete-custom-field disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register GoHighLevel MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
