THE RISK

Critical Risk

Why monica_manage_media needs a policy

The tool spans Read (list, inspect), Write (upload), and Destructive (delete) operations. Per the rules, the most severe applicable category wins. Deleting documents and photos from Monica CRM is irreversible, so this is classified as Destructive. Severity is high because an AI agent could permanently remove important contact documents or photos across the CRM.

From the tool's definition 'upload, or delete documents and photos stored in Monica' — the delete operation is irreversible, making this the dominant risk category

POLICY

How to control monica_manage_media

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "monica_manage_media"
  ]
}

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