Why ticktick_delete_task_attachment needs a policy

The tool permanently removes attachments associated with tasks. While not as severe as deleting the task itself, attachment deletion is an irreversible destructive action that cannot be undone through the API. The high severity reflects the permanent data loss of user-uploaded files. Confidence is high because the intent is unambiguous from the name and description.

From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'delete' and description states 'Remove attachments', which irreversibly deletes file attachments from tasks.

POLICY

How to control ticktick_delete_task_attachment

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and TickTick MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for ticktick_delete_task_attachment:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "ticktick_delete_task_attachment"
  ]
}

ticktick_delete_task_attachment disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

Create a free account and register TickTick MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
