Delete a processor.
AI agents call delete_processor to permanently remove resources in Yamcs MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a processor in a mission control system like Yamcs removes data processing configuration that cannot be easily recovered. This is an irreversible operation affecting system state and potentially mission-critical functionality.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_processor' with description 'Delete a processor' indicates irreversible deletion of a processor resource in a mission control system (Yamcs). The verb 'delete' is explicitly destructive.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a processor. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Yamcs MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Yamcs MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_processor: 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 Yamcs MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_processor 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 delete_processor 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 delete_processor. 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.
delete_processor is provided by the Yamcs MCP Server MCP server (paulmramirez/yamcs-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
