Delete a private key. When COOLIFY_REQUIRE_CONFIRM=true, requires confirm: true parameter.
AI agents call delete_private_key to permanently remove resources in Coolify MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a private key is an irreversible operation that permanently removes cryptographic credentials. This causes catastrophic blast radius: loss of authentication, inability to decrypt data, broken deployments, and potential service outages. Private keys cannot be recovered once deleted.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_private_key' combined with description stating it 'Delete[s] a private key' indicates irreversible deletion of cryptographic material. The confirmation requirement (COOLIFY_REQUIRE_CONFIRM=true) acknowledges the destructive nature.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a private key. When COOLIFY_REQUIRE_CONFIRM=true, requires confirm: true parameter. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Coolify MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Coolify MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_private_key: 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 Coolify MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_private_key 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 delete_private_key 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 delete_private_key. 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.
delete_private_key is provided by the Coolify MCP Server MCP server (kof70/coolify-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
