What delete-event does on GoHighLevel MCP Server
AI agents call delete-event to permanently remove resources in GoHighLevel MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why delete-event is rated Critical
Deletion is an irreversible operation that cannot be undone. In a business context (GoHighLevel is a business management platform), deleting events can disrupt schedules, client communications, and business operations. This qualifies as Destructive rather than Execute because the primary effect is data destruction, not conditional execution.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete-event' and description 'Delete event by ID' directly indicate permanent deletion of calendar events.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs delete-event safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GoHighLevel MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete-event, this is the rule to start with:
delete-event 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 GoHighLevel MCP Server, apply this rule, and every delete-event call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about delete-event

delete-event is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete-event rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
