policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete_query_log_entry"
  ]
}

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

  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
