THE RISK

Why tracker_settings_app_delete needs a policy

The 'delete' operation in the name indicates this tool removes data irreversibly. In an analytics platform, deleting tracker settings or app configurations cannot be easily undone and would impact data collection or system functionality. This is more severe than Write (reversible modification) and qualifies as Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'tracker_settings_app_delete' explicitly contains 'delete'. No description provided, but the name and server context (Piwik PRO Analytics management) indicate irreversible deletion of tracker settings or app configuration.

POLICY

How to control tracker_settings_app_delete

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "tracker_settings_app_delete"
  ]
}

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

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