Summary
drop_database is in the tool list, so scope the connection's credentials rather than trusting the conversation.
Most database servers stop at reading and writing documents. This one can remove a database, which is useful for the setup-and-teardown work around testing and catastrophic anywhere near production. The protection that actually works is the MongoDB user you connect with: give it rights over the databases it should touch and nothing else. A confirmation prompt is a speed bump; a permission is a wall.
