Delete a location by ID.
AI agents call delete_location to permanently remove resources in Mycase — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deletion is irreversible and removes data from the law firm's case management system. In a legal context where locations may be linked to cases, clients, or other entities, unauthorized deletion could compromise case information and audit trails. This warrants high severity despite being scoped to locations rather than entire cases or financial records.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_location' and description states 'Delete a location by ID.' The verb 'delete' combined with the explicit action of removing data by identifier is a destructive operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a location by ID. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Mycase MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Mycase MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_location: 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 Mycase. Nothing to install.
delete_location is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_location 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_location. 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.
delete_location is provided by the Mycase MCP server (rosenadvertising/mycase-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
