TMOS API DELETE. path는 삭제할 리소스까지 포함 (예: ltm/pool/~Common~my_pool).
AI agents call tm_delete_tool to permanently remove resources in F5 MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool performs irreversible deletion of F5 network infrastructure objects (pools, virtual servers, etc.) via the iControl REST API. Misuse by an AI agent could permanently destroy critical load-balancing configurations, resulting in service outages and inability to undo changes. This meets the Destructive category definition as it cannot be undone and has critical blast radius in a network infrastructure context.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'tm_delete_tool' and description explicitly states 'TMOS API DELETE' with example showing deletion of resources like 'ltm/pool/~Common~my_pool'. DELETE operations irreversibly remove F5 configurations.

Register the F5 MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for tm_delete_tool: 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 F5 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
tm_delete_tool 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 tm_delete_tool 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 tm_delete_tool. 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.
tm_delete_tool is provided by the F5 MCP Server MCP server (mink0119/f5-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
