Allow granular disabling of Super Agent default tools
C
Chris Mackinlay
Super Agents currently include required default tools such as edit_self, execute code, workspace search, task retrieval, and scheduling. I am unable to toggle those permissions off and they cause me extreme concern due to prompt injection possibility.
That creates a meaningful security concern for agents that process untrusted external content such as forwarded emails, form submissions, or imported text. A prompt-injection attack could potentially exploit those built-in capabilities even when the agent's instructions explicitly say not to.
It would be much safer if admins could disable individual default tools per agent, especially:
Edit self
Execute code
Search Workspace
Retrieve task lists
Create schedules
Persistent memory/write-to-do capabilities
For narrow-purpose agents, least-privilege controls should be enforced by the platform rather than relying primarily on prompt instructions.
