What deleteOneTask does on Twenty MCP Server

AI agents call deleteOneTask to permanently remove resources in Twenty MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Why deleteOneTask needs a policy

The tool permanently deletes a task record with no indication of reversibility or undo capability. This is a destructive operation that cannot be recovered without external backups. While the impact is scoped to a single task (reducing blast radius compared to bulk deletion), the irreversible nature and lack of recovery mechanism classify it as Destructive rather than Write.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'deleteOneTask' with description 'Delete One task' explicitly uses the delete verb, which irreversibly removes data from the CRM system.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access deleteOneTask gives an agent:

How to control deleteOneTask

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 deleteOneTask:

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

deleteOneTask 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.
