## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "delete_comment",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why delete_comment is rated Critical

Deleting a comment cannot be undone and permanently removes data from the Trello card. This qualifies as Destructive rather than Write (which is reversible). The severity is medium because the blast radius is limited to a single comment's loss, not affecting core card/board structure or financial operations. A user might restore from backups, but the tool itself provides no undo mechanism.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'delete_comment' and description states 'Delete a comment from a Trello card' — the action is irreversible deletion of data."

## Use case

AI agents call delete_comment to permanently remove resources in Trello, 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 Trello:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete_comment"
  ]
}
```
