Why delete_multiple_nodes needs a policy

This tool permanently removes design nodes from Figma without undo capability from the tool's perspective (though Figma itself may have undo). The ability to delete multiple nodes at once creates a high blast radius—an AI agent misusing this could destroy significant design work. Destructive operations take precedence over Write operations in severity classification.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_multiple_nodes' and description 'Delete multiple nodes from Figma at once' explicitly indicate irreversible deletion of design elements.

POLICY

How to control delete_multiple_nodes

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

policy.json

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

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

FAQ

Questions about delete_multiple_nodes

What does the delete_multiple_nodes tool do? +

Delete multiple nodes from Figma at once. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Figma AI Bridge MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on delete_multiple_nodes? +

Register the Figma AI Bridge MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_multiple_nodes: 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 Figma AI Bridge. Nothing to install.

What risk level is delete_multiple_nodes? +

delete_multiple_nodes is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit delete_multiple_nodes? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_multiple_nodes 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.

How do I block delete_multiple_nodes completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_multiple_nodes. 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.

What MCP server provides delete_multiple_nodes? +

delete_multiple_nodes is provided by the Figma AI Bridge MCP server (renfei-design/figma_ai_bridge). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Figma AI Bridge tool call.

Start from Figma AI Bridge, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
