Part of the Timergy MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents may call delete_webhook to permanently remove or destroy resources in Timergy. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

// WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON DELETE_WEBHOOK

Without a policy, an AI agent could call delete_webhook in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Timergy. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

// RECOMMENDED POLICY

Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

timergy.yaml

tools:
  delete_webhook:
    rules:
      - action: deny
        reason: "Blocked by default — enable with approval"
