WHAT IT DOES

What delete_issue_comment does on Forgejo

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

RISK

Why delete_issue_comment is rated Critical

The tool permanently deletes issue comments, which cannot be undone. This is irreversible data destruction, making it Destructive rather than Write. Severity is high because an AI agent could maliciously delete important discussion history, but blast radius is limited to a single repository's comments rather than system-wide (which would be critical). Confidence is high because the intent is unambiguous.

From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete a comment on an issue' — this irreversibly removes data.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete_issue_comment safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Forgejo, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_issue_comment, this is the rule to start with:

delete_issue_comment Hidden

delete_issue_comment is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
