Why deleteCalendarEvent needs a policy

This tool irreversibly deletes calendar events, which cannot be undone. Deletion of calendar data constitutes a destructive operation. While not financial, the action has a high blast radius in a business context (missed meetings, broken coordination, lost scheduling information).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'deleteCalendarEvent' and description explicitly states 'Delete a calendar event.' The verb 'delete' is irreversible action that removes data permanently.

POLICY

How to control deleteCalendarEvent

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Google Workspace MCP Server, 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.

Create a free account and register Google Workspace MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
