Part of the Contentful MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

@contentful/mcp-server Destructive

WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents may call delete_concept_scheme to permanently remove or destroy resources in Contentful. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON DELETE_CONCEPT_SCHEME

Without a policy, an AI agent could call delete_concept_scheme in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Contentful. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

RECOMMENDED POLICY

Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

contentful.yaml 
tools:
  delete_concept_scheme:
    rules:
      - action: deny
        reason: "Blocked by default — enable with approval"
