Delete the active notification from the Plugwise gateway. Use this to clear system notifications, alerts, or warnings displayed on the gateway.
AI agents call delete_notification to permanently remove resources in Plugwise — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool performs an irreversible deletion operation on gateway notifications. While the blast radius is limited to notification clearing (not critical system data), the destructive nature of deletion—once executed, the notification cannot be recovered—places it in the Destructive category rather than Write.

It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Plugwise MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Plugwise MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_notification: 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 Plugwise. Nothing to install.
delete_notification 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_notification 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_notification. 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_notification is provided by the Plugwise MCP server (plugwise-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
