## Why arvan_vod_delete_file is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes data (an uploaded source file) without the possibility of recovery. Deletion operations are irreversible and represent the highest risk category. The high severity reflects that an AI agent with misuse potential could delete critical media assets, though the blast radius is somewhat limited to VOD files rather than entire infrastructure.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name explicitly states 'delete' and description confirms 'Delete an uploaded source file by id' - this is an irreversible deletion operation."

## Use case

AI agents call arvan_vod_delete_file to permanently remove resources in ArvanCloud MCP Server, 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 ArvanCloud MCP Server:

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