Remove a server configuration from a client configuration
AI agents call remove_server_configuration to permanently remove resources in MCP Client Configuration Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently deletes server configuration entries from client configuration files. Once removed, the configuration cannot be recovered without manual re-entry or backup restoration. This is a destructive operation affecting system state. While not as critical as removing all servers or corrupting core configs, it irreversibly modifies configuration state, qualifying it as Destructive rather than Write.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'remove_server_configuration' with description 'Remove a server configuration from a client configuration'. The verb 'remove' paired with deletion of configuration entries is irreversible.

remove_server_configuration 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 remove_server_configuration 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 remove_server_configuration. 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.
remove_server_configuration is provided by the MCP Client Configuration Server MCP server (landicefu/mcp-client-configuration-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
