Delete a Monit test

How to control monit_delete_test ↓

AI agents call monit_delete_test to permanently remove resources in OPNSense MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

This tool deletes monitoring test configurations, which cannot be undone. While not as critical as deleting firewall rules or certificates, deletion of monitoring tests is still a destructive operation that removes system configuration. An AI agent misusing this could disable important health checks or security monitoring, impacting visibility into system status.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'monit_delete_test' contains 'delete', and description states 'Delete a Monit test'. The verb 'delete' indicates irreversible removal of data/configuration.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access monit_delete_test gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and OPNSense MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for monit_delete_test:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "monit_delete_test"
  ]
}

monit_delete_test disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register OPNSense MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
