WHAT IT DOES

What delete_flow_node does on instantKOM MCP Server

AI agents call delete_flow_node to permanently remove resources in instantKOM MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why delete_flow_node is rated Critical

This tool permanently deletes flow nodes and their connected edges, which cannot be automatically undone. While the bot itself is preserved, the flow architecture is modified irreversibly. The high severity reflects that deleting flow nodes could disrupt automation workflows and messaging operations on the instantKOM platform, potentially affecting live chat/messenger functionality.

From the tool's definition delete_flow_node description explicitly states 'Remove a node from a flow. Also removes connected edges.' The verb 'Remove' combined with the irreversible deletion of flow structure elements (nodes and edges) indicates destructive action.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete_flow_node safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and instantKOM MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_flow_node, this is the rule to start with:

delete_flow_node Hidden

delete_flow_node is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
