WHAT IT DOES

What delete_milestone does on Todos

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

RISK

Why delete_milestone is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes a milestone from the roadmap. Deletion is irreversible and constitutes a destructive operation. While the blast radius may be limited to a single milestone record, the operation cannot be undone without external recovery mechanisms. High severity is appropriate because an AI agent misusing this could remove important project tracking data.

From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly uses 'delete' and description states 'Delete a local roadmap milestone' — the verb 'delete' indicates irreversible removal of data.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete_milestone safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Todos, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_milestone, this is the rule to start with:

delete_milestone Hidden

delete_milestone is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
