Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access deleteTodo gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Stytch Consumer TODO MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for deleteTodo:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"deleteTodo"
]
}deleteTodo disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
