send the delete request
AI agents call send-delete-request to permanently remove resources in Api Testing — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool sends HTTP DELETE requests, which are by definition intended to delete/remove resources on the target server. DELETE operations are typically irreversible, making this Destructive. Severity is high because an AI agent could delete arbitrary remote resources depending on the URL and payload provided. Confidence is slightly reduced because the description is minimal and does not clarify scope or safeguards.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
send the delete request. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Api Testing MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Api Testing MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for send-delete-request: 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 Api Testing. Nothing to install.
send-delete-request 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 send-delete-request 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 send-delete-request. 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.
send-delete-request is provided by the Api Testing MCP server (naveen-automation/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
send-delete-request is one line of Api Testing's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
