## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "name": "remove_tool",
    "arguments": {}

## Why remove_tool is rated Critical

This tool performs an irreversible deletion action on stored tool definitions. Once removed from the collection, the tool configuration is lost and cannot be recovered through normal operation. While not a data deletion in the traditional sense, removing tools from a configured collection constitutes destructive modification of system state. An agent misusing this could delete critical tools needed for operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'remove_tool' and description states 'Remove a tool from your personal collection.' The verb 'remove' combined with deletion from a personal collection indicates irreversible removal of configuration or tool definitions."

## Use case

AI agents call remove_tool to permanently remove resources in Automagik Tools, 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 Automagik Tools:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "remove_tool"
  ]
}
```
