WHAT IT DOES

What delete-account does on Xrpl mcp

AI agents call delete-account 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 delete-account is rated Critical

This tool irreversibly deletes a ledger account and transfers its assets. Deletion cannot be undone, making it Destructive rather than merely Write. The critical severity reflects the high blast radius: an AI agent misuse could permanently destroy user accounts and liquidate funds to attacker-controlled addresses. This is among the most damaging operations possible on a blockchain platform.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete' and description explicitly states 'Delete an XRP Ledger account' which irreversibly removes the account.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete-account 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 delete-account, this is the rule to start with:

delete-account Hidden

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