WHAT IT DOES

What credential-delete does on Xrpl mcp

AI agents call credential-delete to permanently remove resources in Xrpl mcp, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why credential-delete is rated Critical

The tool performs permanent deletion of data on the XRP Ledger. While the deletion has authorized access controls (issuer, subject, or anyone for expired credentials), the action itself is irreversible and removes data from the ledger.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'credential-delete' and description states 'Delete a credential from the XRP Ledger' — this is an irreversible deletion operation that cannot be undone.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs credential-delete safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Xrpl mcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For credential-delete, this is the rule to start with:

credential-delete Hidden

credential-delete is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
