Critical Risk

Why 1ly_delete_link needs a policy

This tool deletes data (API links) in a way that cannot be reversed. Deletion is the archetypal destructive operation. While the blast radius is scoped to a specific link (mitigating from critical), the irreversibility and potential to break API integrations or access if the wrong link is deleted elevates this to high severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name '1ly_delete_link' combined with description 'Delete an API link by id' explicitly performs an irreversible deletion operation. The action cannot be undone.

How to control 1ly_delete_link

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and 1ly, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for 1ly_delete_link:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "1ly_delete_link"
  ]
}

1ly_delete_link disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register 1ly — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
