Removes an object from a specific list in a space.

Single-target operation

Part of the Anytype MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents may call remove_object_from_list to permanently remove or destroy resources in Anytype MCP Server. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

// WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON REMOVE_OBJECT_FROM_LIST

Without a policy, an AI agent could call remove_object_from_list in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Anytype MCP Server. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

// RECOMMENDED POLICY

Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

tools:
  remove_object_from_list:
    rules:
      - action: deny
