What unrepost does on Bluesky

AI agents call unrepost to permanently remove resources in Bluesky — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Why unrepost needs a policy

Removing a repost deletes a previously created repost record on Bluesky. While not catastrophic (the original post remains), the repost itself is irreversibly removed without a clear undo mechanism, placing it in the Destructive category. Severity is medium because it only affects the user's own repost, not others' content.

From the tool's definition 'Remove your repost' — this action undoes/removes a repost, which is a deletion of an existing social action

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

How to control unrepost

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

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

unrepost 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 Bluesky — 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.
