Delete a comment from a slide by its 1-based index.
AI agents call ppt_delete_comment to permanently remove resources in Ppt — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deletion of comments is a destructive operation that cannot be undone programmatically. While the blast radius is somewhat limited to individual comments rather than entire presentations, the irreversible nature of the action and the potential to remove important feedback or collaboration history from a presentation warrants the Destructive category at high severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'ppt_delete_comment' and description explicitly states 'Delete a comment from a slide' — the verb 'delete' indicates irreversible removal of data.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access ppt_delete_comment gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Ppt, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for ppt_delete_comment:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"ppt_delete_comment"
]
}ppt_delete_comment disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
