## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "name": "delete_project",
    "arguments": {}

## Why delete_project is rated Critical

This tool performs irreversible deletion of potentially large data collections (a project and all associated tasks). While not financial, it has high blast radius if invoked incorrectly by an AI agent, as deleted projects cannot be recovered. The permanent nature and scope of deletion place this squarely in the Destructive category.

From the tool's own definition: "'Permanently delete a project and all its tasks' - the tool description explicitly states irreversible deletion of data structures and their contents."

## Use case

AI agents call delete_project 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Todos:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete_project"
  ]
}
```
