## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "fl_clear_pattern",
    "arguments": {}

}
```

## Why fl_clear_pattern is rated Critical

This tool deletes pattern data without apparent undo capability or recovery mechanism explicitly mentioned. While FL Studio typically maintains undo history, the tool itself performs an irreversible operation that destroys musical composition work. An AI agent misusing this could destroy a user's current pattern work, representing significant data loss.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'fl_clear_pattern' with description 'Clear the current pattern' indicates irreversible deletion of pattern data in FL Studio. 'Clear' in DAW context means to erase/wipe content."

## Use case

AI agents call fl_clear_pattern to permanently remove resources in FL Studio MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches FL Studio MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "fl_clear_pattern"
  ]
}
```
