## Facts

- Tool: `delete_environment_tool`
- Server: Qiskit IBM Transpiler MCP Server (`qiskit-ibm-transpiler-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/qiskit-ibm-transpiler-mcp-server.md
- Install: `npx -y qiskit-ibm-transpiler-mcp-server`
- Homepage: https://github.com/Qiskit/mcp-servers

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "delete_environment_tool",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why delete_environment_tool is rated Critical

The tool performs a delete operation, which is inherently destructive and cannot be undone. Deletion of an environment could impact configurations, running jobs, or dependent resources. This falls squarely under the Destructive category (irreversibly deletes data) rather than Write (which is reversible).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'delete_environment_tool' and description 'Delete an environment' explicitly indicate irreversible deletion of a resource."

## Use case

AI agents call delete_environment_tool to permanently remove resources in Qiskit IBM Transpiler MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Qiskit IBM Transpiler MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete_environment_tool"
  ]
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
