What delete_zone does on CloudStack MCP Server
AI agents call delete_zone 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.
Why delete_zone is rated Critical
Deleting a zone/data center is an irreversible operation that destroys an entire collection of infrastructure, hosts, networks, and potentially running services. This is the most severe category (Destructive) as it cannot be undone and affects multiple dependent resources.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_zone' and description states 'Delete a zone/data center'. The verb 'delete' paired with infrastructure-level resource (entire zone/data center) clearly indicates irreversible deletion.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs delete_zone safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and CloudStack MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_zone, this is the rule to start with:
delete_zone is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect CloudStack MCP Server, apply this rule, and every delete_zone call is checked against it from then on.
