Why meta_hide_comment needs a policy

This tool modifies comment visibility (a reversible state change) rather than deleting or executing arbitrary operations. It does not retrieve data (Read), execute code or external operations (Execute), permanently remove data (Destructive), or transfer money (Financial).

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Hides or unhides a comment' and is described as 'a non-destructive alternative to deletion.' The boolean parameter 'is_hidden' allows toggling visibility of content, which is a reversible modification of comment visibility state.

How to control meta_hide_comment

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "meta_hide_comment": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "meta_hide_comment_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

meta_hide_comment stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Meta MCP Server — 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.
