From the tool's definition Tool name is 'liara_delete_zone' with description 'Delete a DNS zone'. The verb 'delete' combined with DNS zone scope indicates irreversible removal of DNS configuration.

POLICY

How to control liara_delete_zone

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "liara_delete_zone"
  ]
}

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

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