Delete a slide from a presentation
AI agents call deleteGoogleSlide to permanently remove resources in Google Drive MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a slide permanently removes presentation content that cannot be automatically recovered through the MCP server. This is an irreversible operation affecting user data, making it more severe than Write operations. While not Financial or Execute-category, it fits Destructive because the action cannot be undone by normal means and represents data loss.
From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete a slide from a presentation', indicating irreversible removal of data.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Google Drive MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for deleteGoogleSlide:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"deleteGoogleSlide"
]
}deleteGoogleSlide disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
