Why delete_flow_logs needs a policy

The 'delete' operation in the tool name indicates this is a destructive action that irreversibly removes log data. Although the description is empty (lowering confidence slightly), the explicit 'delete' verb in a logging/workflow management context clearly indicates data destruction.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_flow_logs' explicitly contains 'delete', indicating irreversible removal of data. The sibling context shows this server manages Kestra workflows and their execution logs. Deletion of logs cannot be undone.

How to control delete_flow_logs

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

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

delete_flow_logs 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 Kestra Python 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.
