THE RISK

Critical Risk

Why delete-link needs a policy

Deletion operations are classified as Destructive because they irreversibly remove data. In the context of GoHighLevel's business management system (which handles contacts, opportunities, campaigns, and communications), deleting links could affect critical business operations, marketing campaigns, or customer relationship data.

From the tool's definition Tool is named 'delete-link' with description 'Delete Link', which performs an irreversible deletion operation. The verb 'delete' explicitly indicates data removal that cannot be undone.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access delete-link gives an agent:

POLICY

How to control delete-link

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-link:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete-link"
  ]
}

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

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