# session_delete

Delete a saved session Use when native conversation memory is wrong because you need durable cross-session state — restoring agent definitions, swarm topology, memory store, breaker history. For in-session continuation only, no tool needed. Pair with session_save before exiting and session_restore on resume.

## Facts

- Tool: `session_delete`
- Server: Ruflo (`ruvnet/ruflo`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/ruflo.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/ruvnet/ruflo
- Risk category: Destructive (Critical risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Hidden

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "session_delete",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why session_delete is rated Critical

The tool permanently deletes saved session data including agent definitions, topology configuration, memory stores, and historical state. This is a destructive action that cannot be undone and eliminates persistent state across the swarm system. An AI agent misusing this could irreversibly destroy critical system configuration and operational history, making it Destructive rather than merely Write.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'session_delete' combined with description stating 'Delete a saved session' with explicit mention of deleting 'durable cross-session state — restoring agent definitions, swarm topology, memory store, breaker history.' This is an irreversible…"

## Use case

AI agents call session_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": [
    "session_delete"
  ]
}
```
