## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why agentdb_causal-edge-delete is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes causal relationships in the agent memory system, which cannot be undone. Deletion of structural metadata (causal edges) that govern agent reasoning chains represents irreversible data destruction. While not as critical as deleting entire memory entries, it is more severe than Write operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'delete' and description explicitly states 'Delete a causal edge between two memory entries.' The word 'Delete' indicates irreversible removal of data."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Ruflo:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "agentdb_causal-edge-delete"
  ]
}
