Remove a knowledge project

How to control agentKnowledgeProjectRemove ↓

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

Critical Risk

The 'Remove' action on a knowledge project constitutes an irreversible deletion of data. This falls under the Destructive category as it cannot be undone and results in permanent loss of the project. Severity is high because it affects an entire project's knowledge base, though the blast radius is limited to that specific project rather than system-wide or financial impacts.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'Remove' and description states 'Remove a knowledge project' — this irreversibly deletes a project and its associated data.

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

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

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

agentKnowledgeProjectRemove 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 Mcp Taskade — 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.
