## Why source_remove is rated Critical

The 'remove' verb paired with 'source' maps to destructive operations that cannot be undone. This carries significant risk if an agent misuses it to delete critical source files or code repositories. Severity is high rather than critical because the exact scope (single file, directory, or entire repository) is unclear due to lack of documentation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'source_remove' indicates deletion or removal of source data/code without reversibility. No description provided, limiting confidence."

## Use case

AI agents call source_remove to permanently remove resources in Mcp Anything, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Mcp Anything:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "source_remove"
  ]
}
```
