Delete test plan entry
AI agents call delete_plan_entry to permanently remove resources in TestRail MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a test plan entry is a destructive operation that removes data and cannot be undone through normal operations. This affects test management workflows and historical records. While not as critical as financial or data-center-wide destructive actions, the blast radius is significant in a test management context where plan integrity and traceability matter.
From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete test plan entry' — irreversible removal of test plan data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access

delete_plan_entry is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_plan_entry rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_plan_entry. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
