THE RISK

Critical Risk

Why memory_delete needs a policy

This tool irreversibly removes data (memory files) from storage and cannot be undone. Deletion operations that cannot be reversed fall under the Destructive category. Severity is high because an AI agent could maliciously or mistakenly delete important personal or shared data, with potential impact on multiple users (shared storage).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'memory_delete' combined with description 'Delete a memory file from personal or shared storage' explicitly performs irreversible deletion of data.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access memory_delete gives an agent:

POLICY

How to control memory_delete

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

policy.json

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

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