Critical Risk

Why deleteCalendarEvent needs a policy

Deletion of calendar events cannot be undone and permanently removes data. This falls into the Destructive category (irreversibly deletes data) rather than Write (reversible modifications). The high severity reflects that an AI agent could maliciously or mistakenly delete many calendar events, disrupting a user's schedule.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'deleteCalendarEvent' which performs deletion. Description is empty, but the verb 'delete' combined with the method's clear destructive semantics (removing calendar events) indicates irreversible data removal.

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

How to control deleteCalendarEvent

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

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

deleteCalendarEvent 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 MCP Apple Calendars — 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.
