Why delete-network-storage needs a policy

This tool permanently removes network storage, which is data deletion and cannot be reversed. Destructive category is appropriate as it involves irreversible removal of infrastructure resources. Severity is high because unintended deletion of network storage could cause significant data loss and service disruption.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete-network-storage' explicitly indicates irreversible deletion of network storage resources. The 'delete-' prefix combined with 'network-storage' clearly denotes a destructive operation that cannot be undone.

POLICY

How to control delete-network-storage

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Novita MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for delete-network-storage:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete-network-storage"
  ]
}

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

Create a free account and register Novita MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
