WHAT IT DOES

What mysql_drop_index does on Mcp Windows

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

RISK

Why mysql_drop_index is rated Critical

Dropping an index is a destructive action that irreversibly removes database metadata and cannot be automatically recovered. While not as severe as dropping an entire table, it degrades query performance and requires manual intervention to restore. An AI agent could accidentally degrade system performance or availability by dropping critical indexes without understanding their purpose.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'mysql_drop_index' explicitly performs a DROP operation on a database index. The verb 'drop' is irreversible—once an index is deleted, it cannot be undone without recreating it from scratch.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs mysql_drop_index safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Windows, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For mysql_drop_index, this is the rule to start with:

mysql_drop_index Hidden

mysql_drop_index is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
