How to control dsl_track_delete ↓

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

Critical Risk

The 'delete' verb combined with 'track' context places this firmly in the Destructive category. Track deletion is an irreversible operation that permanently removes project data (or at minimum, requires explicit undo operations outside this tool's scope). The high confidence reflects the unambiguous destructive intent despite the missing description.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'dsl_track_delete' explicitly indicates deletion operation. Description is empty, but the name unambiguously implies irreversible removal of a track from a REAPER project.

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

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

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

dsl_track_delete 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 REAPER MCP Server — 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.
