Critical Risk

Why delete_person needs a policy

Deletion operations are irreversible and cannot be undone. Removing a person record from a CRM system constitutes permanent data loss. Even without a description, the verb 'delete' combined with the domain context (CRM contact management) clearly indicates a destructive operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_person' with empty description. The name explicitly indicates deletion of a person record from the Folk CRM system.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access delete_person gives an agent:

How to control delete_person

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Folk CRM MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for delete_person:

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

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