Critical Risk

This tool irreversibly removes a PowerPoint presentation by moving it to the recycle bin. While technically recoverable from the recycle bin for a limited time, it represents an immediate data loss action that cannot be undone within normal workflow and could cause significant business impact if triggered on the wrong file. The high severity reflects potential loss of important presentations and documents.

From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'delete' and description states 'Delete a PowerPoint presentation from OneDrive. This moves the file to the recycle bin.' - explicitly destructive operation that removes a file.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access powerpoint_delete_presentation 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 powerpoint_delete_presentation:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "powerpoint_delete_presentation"
  ]
}

powerpoint_delete_presentation disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  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.
