REDDIT_DELETE_REDDIT_COMMENT

WHAT REDDIT_DELETE_REDDIT_COMMENT ON REDDIT DOES

AI agents call REDDIT_DELETE_REDDIT_COMMENT to permanently remove resources in Reddit — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`id`	string	—	The full 'thing ID' (fullname, e.g., 't1_c0s4w1c') of the comment to delete; typically starts with 't1_'.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

THE RISK

Critical Risk

This tool irreversibly removes user-generated content (a Reddit comment). Deletion cannot be undone, matching the Destructive category definition. Severity is high because an AI agent could be tricked into deleting many comments or critical community discussions, damaging reputation and conversation history.

From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'DELETE' and description states it 'Deletes a Reddit comment'. The operation is irreversible—once deleted, the comment cannot be recovered.

HOW TO CONTROL REDDIT_DELETE_REDDIT_COMMENT

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

policy.json

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

REDDIT_DELETE_REDDIT_COMMENT 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 Reddit — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
