# mcp_delete_widget Remove a widget from its sidebar Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `mcp_delete_widget`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-widget ## Facts - Tool: `mcp_delete_widget` - Server: Wordpress (`@cavort-it-systems/wordpress-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp.md - Install: `npx -y @cavort-it-systems/wordpress-mcp` - Homepage: https://github.com/cvrt-jh/wordpress-mcp - Risk category: Destructive (Critical risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Hidden ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "mcp_delete_widget", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why mcp_delete_widget is rated Critical Deletion of widgets from sidebars is an irreversible action that destroys website UI/layout configuration. While the blast radius is scoped to widget state rather than data records, the inability to undo the action and the impact on website presentation classify this as Destructive rather than Write. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Remove a widget from its sidebar' — this irreversibly deletes widget configuration and cannot be undone without restoration." ## Use case AI agents call mcp_delete_widget to permanently remove resources in Wordpress, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Wordpress: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "hide": [ "mcp_delete_widget" ] } ``` ## Other tools on Wordpress (313) - `acf_delete_field_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/acf-delete-field-group.md - `fields_delete_definition` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/fields-delete-definition.md - `fort_cache_purge` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/fort-cache-purge.md - `legal_delete_section` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/legal-delete-section.md - `legal_put_document` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/legal-put-document.md - `legal_reset_accessibility_report` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/legal-reset-accessibility-report.md - `legal_restore_generator` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/legal-restore-generator.md - `mcp_bulk_delete_media` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-bulk-delete-media.md - `mcp_clean_comments` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-clean-comments.md - `mcp_clean_revisions` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-clean-revisions.md - `mcp_delete_cpt_post` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-cpt-post.md - `mcp_delete_media` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-media.md - `mcp_delete_menu` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-menu.md - `mcp_delete_menu_item` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-menu-item.md - `mcp_delete_option` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-option.md - `mcp_delete_term` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-term.md - `mcp_delete_theme` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-theme.md - `mcp_delete_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-delete-user.md - `mcp_flush_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/mcp-flush-cache.md - `seo_clear_monitor_log` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/seo-clear-monitor-log.md - `seo_delete_post_seo` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/seo-delete-post-seo.md - `seo_delete_redirect` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/seo-delete-redirect.md - `seo_delete_term_seo` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/seo-delete-term-seo.md - `stripe_recreate_webhook` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/stripe-recreate-webhook.md - `woo_delete_category` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/woo-delete-category.md - `woo_delete_coupon` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/woo-delete-coupon.md - `woo_delete_product` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/woo-delete-product.md - `woo_delete_variation` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/woo-delete-variation.md - `woo_helper_create_invoice` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/woo-helper-create-invoice.md - `wp_delete_category` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp/wp-delete-category.md - …and 283 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-cvrt-jh-wordpress-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
