Removes a scene item from a scene. Args: scene_name: Name of the scene the item is in scene_item_id: ID of the scene item to remove
AI agents call remove_scene_item to permanently remove resources in OBS MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Removing a scene item from a scene is a destructive, irreversible action. Once removed, the scene item configuration and its placement in the scene are lost. This cannot be undone without recreating the item, making it a Destructive category action with high severity given it could disrupt live broadcasts or permanently alter production setups.
From the tool's definition 'Removes a scene item from a scene' — the word 'removes' indicates irreversible deletion of a scene item identified by its ID
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access remove_scene_item gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and OBS MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for remove_scene_item:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"remove_scene_item"
]
}remove_scene_item disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
