Why gitlab_delete_work_item_note_emoji_reaction needs a policy

This tool deletes an emoji reaction, which is an irreversible operation.

Severity is medium because the blast radius is limited to a small, recoverable-in-context artifact, but the operation cannot be undone through the tool itself.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete' and description indicates removal of a resource (emoji reaction on a work item note).

How to control gitlab_delete_work_item_note_emoji_reaction

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

policy.json

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

gitlab_delete_work_item_note_emoji_reaction 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 Gitlab — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
