Why remove_tag needs a policy

Removing a tag from a conversation modifies the conversation's metadata but is generally reversible (the tag can be re-added). This falls under Write rather than Destructive since the tag itself is not deleted, only its association with the conversation is removed.

How to control remove_tag

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "remove_tag": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "remove_tag_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

remove_tag stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Frontapp 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.
