What clear-session does on CodeAnalysis MCP Server

AI agents call clear-session to permanently remove resources in CodeAnalysis MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why clear-session needs a policy

Although the description is empty (lowering confidence slightly), the tool name itself strongly suggests destruction of stored session data. This is irreversible—once a session is cleared, its analysis state and history cannot be recovered. The presence of 'create-session' as a sibling confirms sessions are persistent entities.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'clear-session' with empty description. The verb 'clear' combined with 'session' indicates removal or destruction of session data.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access clear-session gives an agent:

How to control clear-session

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "clear-session"
  ]
}

clear-session disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register CodeAnalysis 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.
