Delete a scene by ID

Single-target operation

Part of the Opencut Controller MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

opencut-controller Destructive

AI agents may call scene_delete to permanently remove or destroy resources in Opencut Controller. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call scene_delete in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Opencut Controller. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

What does the scene_delete tool do? +

Delete a scene by ID. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Opencut Controller MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on scene_delete? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for scene_delete. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Opencut Controller MCP server.

What risk level is scene_delete? +

scene_delete is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit scene_delete? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the scene_delete rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block scene_delete completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for scene_delete. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides scene_delete? +

scene_delete is provided by the Opencut Controller MCP server (opencut-controller). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
