Delete a database
AI agents call delete_database to permanently remove resources in Coolify MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a database is a destructive operation that permanently removes all data stored in that database. It is irreversible and represents one of the highest-risk actions in infrastructure management. The tool falls squarely into the Destructive category per the classification rules, warranting critical severity due to the total data loss impact and high blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_database' combined with description 'Delete a database' explicitly indicates irreversible deletion of data. This action cannot be undone and results in permanent data loss.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a database. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Coolify MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Coolify MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_database: 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 Coolify MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_database 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_database 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_database. 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_database is provided by the Coolify MCP Server MCP server (pavelsukhachev/mcp-server-coolify). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
