What memory_forget does on AirMCP
AI agents call memory_forget to permanently remove resources in AirMCP, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why memory_forget is rated Critical
This tool permanently removes memory/context data without the ability to undo the operation. Deletion of data is irreversible by definition, making it Destructive rather than Write. The high severity reflects that an AI agent could maliciously or accidentally erase important user context or system state. Confidence is high due to explicit use of 'Delete' in the description.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'memory_forget' combined with description 'Delete context-memory entries' indicates irreversible deletion of data. The verb 'Delete' is explicit and unambiguous.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs memory_forget safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and AirMCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For memory_forget, this is the rule to start with:
memory_forget 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 AirMCP, apply this rule, and every memory_forget call is checked against it from then on.
