Remove a single track from a playlist by its 0-based position (use fw_get_playlist_tracks to find the right index first). Funkwhale uses POST /remove/ with body {index} — not DELETE.
AI agents call fw_remove_from_playlist to permanently remove resources in Crow — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Removing a track from a playlist is a destructive modification — the track's position in the playlist is deleted/removed. While not catastrophic (the track itself still exists), the playlist entry removal is not easily reversible without knowing the original index and re-adding. The description explicitly says 'Remove' and uses a POST to a /remove/ endpoint, indicating an irreversible deletion of the playlist entry.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access fw_remove_from_playlist gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Crow, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for fw_remove_from_playlist:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"fw_remove_from_playlist"
]
} fw_remove_from_playlist disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

Remove a single track from a playlist by its 0-based position (use fw_get_playlist_tracks to find the right index first). Funkwhale uses POST /remove/ with body {index} — not DELETE. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Crow MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Crow MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for fw_remove_from_playlist: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Crow. Nothing to install.
fw_remove_from_playlist is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the fw_remove_from_playlist rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for fw_remove_from_playlist. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
fw_remove_from_playlist is provided by the Crow MCP server (kh0pper/crow). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Crow, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
