## Why ghl_delete_association is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes data (associations and their relations) with no stated undo mechanism. While the blast radius is limited to associations rather than entire records, the irreversible nature and cascade deletion effects classify this as Destructive rather than Write. The high severity reflects potential data loss if an AI agent misuses this against important associations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states 'Delete a user-defined association. This will also delete all relations created with this association.' The use of 'Delete' combined with cascade deletion ('all relations created with this association') indicates…"

## Use case

AI agents call ghl_delete_association to permanently remove resources in Ghl, 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 Ghl:

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