Delete a task
AI agents call deleteTask to permanently remove resources in Tweek MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool performs an irreversible deletion of a task. Destructive operations that cannot be undone pose a high risk if invoked by an AI agent without proper safeguards, as the action cannot be reversed. While the blast radius depends on task criticality, the irreversible nature of deletion justifies the Destructive category and high severity rating.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'deleteTask' and description states 'Delete a task'. The description explicitly uses the word 'Delete', which is an irreversible operation that removes data permanently.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a task. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Tweek MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Tweek MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for deleteTask: 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 Tweek MCP Server. Nothing to install.
deleteTask 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 deleteTask 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 deleteTask. 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.
deleteTask is provided by the Tweek MCP Server MCP server (waspeer/tweek-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
