Why remove_product_link needs a policy

The action of removing/deleting a product link cannot be undone without manual recreation and reconfiguration. This is an irreversible operation that destroys data/associations. While the blast radius is somewhat contained (affecting a single product link rather than bulk data), the destructive nature takes precedence over Write category.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'remove_product_link' and description 'Remove a product link' indicate deletion of a product link resource.

How to control remove_product_link

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "remove_product_link"
  ]
}

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

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