Delete a page (moves to recycle bin)
AI agents call delete_page to permanently remove resources in BookStack MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes pages from a BookStack wiki instance. Even if a recycle bin exists, deletion is a destructive action that removes content from its active state and should be classified as Destructive rather than Write.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a page (moves to recycle bin). It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the BookStack MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the BookStack MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_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 BookStack MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_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 delete_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 delete_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.
delete_page is provided by the BookStack MCP Server MCP server (lautarobarba/bookstack_mcp_server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
