While the description is empty (lowering confidence), the name clearly implies a destructive action. Severity is medium since it affects list membership but not core account data.

How to control remove_list_member

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and X(Twitter) V2 MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for remove_list_member:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "remove_list_member"
  ]
}

remove_list_member disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
