Permanently delete a project and all of its keywords, reports, and analyses.
AI agents call delete_project to permanently remove resources in SurfRank MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool irreversibly destroys data without possibility of recovery or undo. While not financial in impact, the permanent deletion of all project contents (keywords, reports, analyses) represents a high-severity destructive action that could result in significant loss of user work and analytics data.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Permanently delete a project and all of its keywords, reports, and analyses.' The word 'Permanently' and 'delete' combined with the scope of deletion (entire project plus all associated data) clearly indicates irreversible…
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Permanently delete a project and all of its keywords, reports, and analyses. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the SurfRank MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the SurfRank MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_project: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches SurfRank MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_project is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_project rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_project. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
delete_project is provided by the SurfRank MCP Server MCP server (surfrankai/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
