WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents may call DeleteDatabaseTool to permanently remove or destroy resources in Prisma. 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 DELETEDATABASETOOL

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