Delete a QC record and all associated data (irreversible).
AI agents call delete_qcrecord to permanently remove resources in NGS360 MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes QC (quality control) records and all associated data from the NGS360 bioinformatics platform. In a genomics sequencing context, QC records are critical artifacts documenting data integrity, sample validation, and run quality—their deletion cannot be undone and could compromise data provenance, compliance auditing, and research reproducibility.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Delete a QC record and all associated data (irreversible).' The irreversible nature and deletion of data are definitive indicators of Destructive category.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a QC record and all associated data (irreversible). It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the NGS360 MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the NGS360 MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_qcrecord: 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 NGS360 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_qcrecord 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_qcrecord 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_qcrecord. 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_qcrecord is provided by the NGS360 MCP Server MCP server (ngs360/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
