Remove a message from the trash

How to control gmail_untrash_message ↓

AI agents use gmail_untrash_message to create or update resources in Sage MCP — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Sage MCP environment.

Medium Risk

Untrashing a message reverses a prior deletion by restoring the message to the inbox/regular folder. This is a reversible modification of email state (changing the label/location of a message), fitting the Write category. It does not delete, execute code, or involve finances.

From the tool's definition Remove a message from the trash

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

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "gmail_untrash_message": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "gmail_untrash_message_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

gmail_untrash_message stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Sage MCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
