## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "delete_workflow",
    "arguments": {}

## Why delete_workflow is rated Critical

The tool irreversibly deletes workflow data with no recovery mechanism ('cannot be undone'). This is destructive rather than merely Write because deletion is permanent and unrecoverable.

From the tool's own definition: "'Permanently delete a workflow. This action cannot be undone.' The tool explicitly states the action is permanent and irreversible, and it removes data entirely."

## Use case

AI agents call delete_workflow to permanently remove resources in FlowDot 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 FlowDot MCP Server:

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
