Remove a tag from a ticket
AI agents call remove_tag to permanently remove resources in Code Context — 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 remove_tag doesn't hesitate, doesn't double-check, and doesn't stop at one. Whatever it removes from Code Context is gone — there is no undo for destructive operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Remove a tag from a ticket. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Code Context MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Code Context MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for remove_tag: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Code Context. Nothing to install.
remove_tag 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 remove_tag 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 remove_tag. 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.
remove_tag is provided by the Code Context MCP server (velimirmueller/vlm-code-context-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
