What remove_bookmark does on Docx
AI agents call remove_bookmark to permanently remove resources in Docx, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why remove_bookmark is rated Critical
Removing a bookmark is an irreversible deletion of a document element. While the paragraph content is preserved, the bookmark itself cannot be recovered without an undo operation, making this Destructive. Severity is medium since it affects a discrete named element rather than bulk document content.

The rule that runs remove_bookmark safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Docx, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For remove_bookmark, this is the rule to start with:
remove_bookmark 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 Docx, apply this rule, and every remove_bookmark call is checked against it from then on.
