How to control seekdb_memory_delete ↓

AI agents call seekdb_memory_delete to permanently remove resources in Mcp Oceanbase — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Despite the empty description, the tool name explicitly indicates deletion of memory records, which is an irreversible operation. Combined with the memory management context from sibling tools, this is classified as Destructive. Confidence is lowered from 0.95 to 0.85 due to lack of descriptive documentation, but the name itself provides sufficient evidence of destructive intent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'seekdb_memory_delete' contains 'delete', indicating irreversible removal of data. The sibling tools 'add_memory' and 'add_memory_with_profile' suggest this operates on a memory storage system. The '_delete' suffix is a destructive action pattern.

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

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

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

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

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