## Why delete_ip_forwarding_rule is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes an IP forwarding rule from the infrastructure, which cannot be undone. Deletion of network rules is a destructive operation with potential to disrupt traffic routing and service availability. While not as critical as deleting virtual machines or storage, it causes irreversible changes to network infrastructure.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete an IP forwarding rule', indicating irreversible removal of network configuration."

## Use case

AI agents call delete_ip_forwarding_rule to permanently remove resources in CloudStack MCP Server, 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 CloudStack MCP Server:

```json
