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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

    "arguments": {}

## Why conversations_kick is rated Critical

Kicking a user from a conversation is a destructive action: the user loses access immediately and the action cannot be automatically reversed. In a workplace Slack environment, misuse could disrupt collaboration, remove legitimate members from critical channels, and cause organizational harm. It fits Destructive rather than Write because the membership removal is not trivially reversible through the same tool.

From the tool's own definition: "'Remove a user from a conversation' — removing a user is an irreversible administrative action that cannot be undone by the tool itself"

## Use case

AI agents call conversations_kick to permanently remove resources in Slack, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "conversations_kick"
  ]
}
```
