What delete_post does on Postking Mcp
AI agents call delete_post to permanently remove resources in Postking Mcp, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why delete_post is rated Critical
This tool permanently removes posts that may have been published, scheduled, or in draft form. Once deleted, the post cannot be recovered, making this a destructive action. While not as critical as financial transactions, the irreversible nature and potential business impact (removal of published content, loss of engagement) warrant a 'high' severity classification.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Cancel and delete a post regardless of its current status (draft, scheduled, or posted).' The verb 'delete' combined with 'regardless of status' indicates irreversible removal of data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs delete_post safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Postking Mcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_post, this is the rule to start with:
delete_post 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 Postking Mcp, apply this rule, and every delete_post call is checked against it from then on.
