Delete a team scope by unregistering its live members and clearing that team label from preserved history.
AI agents call delete_team to permanently remove resources in Agent Bus — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes team membership records and erases team labels from history. These are irreversible operations that destroy organizational state and audit trails. While not data deletion in the traditional sense, the erasure of team labels from preserved history and unregistration of members constitutes destructive action that cannot be recovered.
From the tool's definition 'Delete a team scope by unregistering its live members and clearing that team label from preserved history.' — the tool irreversibly unregisters members and clears historical records, which cannot be undone.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a team scope by unregistering its live members and clearing that team label from preserved history. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Agent Bus MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Agent Bus MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_team: 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 Agent Bus. Nothing to install.
delete_team 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 delete_team 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 delete_team. 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.
delete_team is provided by the Agent Bus MCP server (mustaphasteph/agent-bus). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
