Alias for remove_app() for clients still using deployment wording.
AI agents call delete_deployment to permanently remove resources in PlugLayer MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool removes/deletes deployed applications, which is an irreversible action that cannot be undone without restoration from backups. Deletion of active deployments constitutes a destructive operation with significant blast radius—an AI agent misusing this could terminate production services.
From the tool's definition Tool is an alias for 'remove_app()' which irreversibly deletes application deployments. The description explicitly indicates deletion functionality ('delete_deployment'), and context shows sibling destructive operations like 'delete_app', 'delete_database',…
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Alias for remove_app() for clients still using deployment wording. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the PlugLayer MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the PlugLayer MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_deployment: 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 PlugLayer MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_deployment 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_deployment 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_deployment. 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_deployment is provided by the PlugLayer MCP Server MCP server (pluglayer/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
