Folder and space operations: list, find, resolve, create, move, rename, delete folders, or list spaces.\n\nActions:\n- list: List folders with optional filtering\n- find: Find folder matches for exploration\n- resolve: Resolve to one canonical folder path\n- create: Create a folder (local: path, ...
AI agents call noteplan_folders to permanently remove resources in Noteplan — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The delete action is explicitly destructive—it removes folders and their contents. Move and rename are Write-level operations, but combined with the delete capability, the most severe applicable category is Destructive. While deletion goes to trash (potentially recoverable), the tool's primary destructive capability and the requirement for confirmation tokens indicate high severity.
From the tool's definition Tool supports delete folder action which 'Delete folder to trash'; also supports irreversible move and rename operations that require confirmation tokens, and create operations that modify filesystem structure.

Folder and space operations: list, find, resolve, create, move, rename, delete folders, or list spaces.\n\nActions:\n- list: List folders with optional filtering\n- find: Find folder matches for exploration\n- resolve: Resolve to one canonical folder path\n- create: Create a folder (local: path, TeamSpace: space + name)\n- move: Move a folder (requires dryRun/confirmationToken)\n- rename: Rename a folder (requires dryRun/confirmationToken)\n- delete: Delete folder to trash (requires dryRun/confirmationToken)\n- list_spaces: List spaces/workspaces with optional filtering. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Noteplan MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Noteplan MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for noteplan_folders: 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 Noteplan. Nothing to install.
noteplan_folders 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 noteplan_folders 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 noteplan_folders. 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.
noteplan_folders is provided by the Noteplan MCP server (@noteplanco/noteplan-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
