How to control delete_food_log ↓

AI agents call delete_food_log to permanently remove resources in Garmin MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

This tool permanently and irreversibly deletes nutrition log entries. Destructive actions that cannot be undone rank higher than Write (which is reversible) or Read. While the blast radius is limited to a single user's nutrition data (not system-wide or financial), the permanent nature of deletion and lack of recovery mechanism classifies it as Destructive with high severity, as misuse could cause loss of important…

From the tool's definition 'Permanently removes a logged food item from the nutrition log' and 'Delete a food log entry' — the tool irreversibly deletes user data without the ability to undo the action.

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

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

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

delete_food_log 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 Garmin MCP Server — 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.
