delete_batch_script
AI agents call delete_batch_script to permanently remove resources in Remote Terminal — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
An AI agent that decides to call delete_batch_script doesn't hesitate, doesn't double-check, and doesn't stop at one. Whatever it removes from Remote Terminal is gone — there is no undo for destructive operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access

delete_batch_script 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_batch_script 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_batch_script. 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_batch_script is provided by the Remote Terminal MCP server (tim00r/remote-terminal). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
