Archive (soft-delete) a Notion page.
AI agents call archive_page to permanently remove resources in Notion — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Archiving a page is a soft-delete operation that removes the page from active use. While technically reversible in Notion (archived pages can be restored), the description explicitly frames it as a form of deletion ('soft-delete'), making it closer to Destructive than Write. The blast radius is high because an entire page and its content hierarchy becomes inaccessible to users upon misuse.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Archive (soft-delete) a Notion page. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Notion MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Notion MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for archive_page: 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 Notion. Nothing to install.
archive_page 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 archive_page 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 archive_page. 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.
archive_page is provided by the Notion MCP server (kuldeepjha5176/notion-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
