Delete a verification test by ID. This is permanent and cannot be undone.
AI agents call delete_test to permanently remove resources in Qontinui MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The tool irreversibly deletes data (a verification test) and cannot be reversed. This matches the Destructive category definition: 'irreversibly deletes or overwrites data, or actions that cannot be undone.' While the blast radius is somewhat bounded to test configurations rather than production data or financial systems, any loss of test data in an automation workflow system can impact CI/CD pipelines and quality…
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states: 'Delete a verification test by ID. This is permanent and cannot be undone.' The words 'permanent' and 'cannot be undone' are clear indicators of destructive action.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a verification test by ID. This is permanent and cannot be undone. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Qontinui MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Qontinui MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_test: 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 Qontinui MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_test 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_test 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_test. 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_test is provided by the Qontinui MCP Server MCP server (qontinui/qontinui-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
