# unsubscribe

Cancel a subscription by id. Ownership is enforced — you can only cancel your own subscriptions. The row is deactivated (not deleted) so its historical events stay available via recent_alerts.

## Facts

- Tool: `unsubscribe`
- Server: Linear (`https://gateway.pipeworx.io/linear/mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pipeworx-io-linear.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/pipeworx-io/mcp-linear
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server auth posture: open
- Server CORS policy: *
- Server rate-limited: yes
- Parameters: 1 (1 required)
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | string | yes | Subscription id (uuid) returned by subscribe. |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

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

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

## Why unsubscribe is rated Medium

The tool deactivates a subscription row rather than permanently deleting it, making it a reversible write operation. While it cancels a subscription, the description explicitly states it is not deleted and historical data remains accessible. Severity is medium because cancelling a subscription has meaningful operational impact but can be reversed by reactivating.

From the tool's own definition: "'The row is deactivated (not deleted) so its historical events stay available via recent_alerts' — the record is soft-deleted/deactivated, not permanently removed; this is a reversible modification."

## Use case

AI agents use unsubscribe to create or update resources in Linear, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Linear environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Linear:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "unsubscribe": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "unsubscribe_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
