What confluence_delete_page does on Sage MCP
AI agents call confluence_delete_page to permanently remove resources in Sage MCP, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why confluence_delete_page is rated Critical
Deleting a Confluence page is a destructive action that permanently removes content and cannot be undone. This fits the Destructive category (irreversibly deletes data). Severity is high because accidental or malicious deletion of documentation pages can disrupt team workflows and cause data loss, though the impact is typically scoped to that specific page rather than system-wide infrastructure.
From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly states 'delete' and description confirms 'Delete a Confluence page by ID' — this is an irreversible deletion operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs confluence_delete_page safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Sage MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For confluence_delete_page, this is the rule to start with:
confluence_delete_page is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Sage MCP, apply this rule, and every confluence_delete_page call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about confluence_delete_page
