Why deleteOnePerson needs a policy

This tool irreversibly deletes a person record from the Twenty CRM system. Deletion of contact data cannot be undone and represents a permanent loss of information. While scoped to a single person (limiting blast radius compared to batch deletion), the destructive nature of the operation and potential impact on business continuity warrant high severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'deleteOnePerson' with description 'Delete One person'. The verb 'delete' is explicitly destructive and irreversible.

How to control deleteOnePerson

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "deleteOnePerson"
  ]
}

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

  1. Create a free account and register Twenty MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
