Critical Risk

Why redact_inquiry needs a policy

This tool permanently erases/scrubs personally identifiable information, captured images, and verification details from an inquiry record. Redaction is irreversible — once PII is scrubbed, it cannot be recovered. This qualifies as Destructive with high severity given the permanent loss of identity verification data and audit trail information.

How to control redact_inquiry

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Ap2, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for redact_inquiry:

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

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