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

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

## Why clean_queue is rated Critical

Cleaning jobs from a queue permanently removes them, which cannot be undone. This matches the Destructive category. Severity is high because an AI agent misusing this tool could wipe out large numbers of jobs across queues, disrupting workloads irreversibly.

From the tool's own definition: "'Clean jobs from queue' — removing jobs from a queue is an irreversible deletion of pending/completed/failed job records"

## Use case

AI agents call clean_queue to permanently remove resources in BullMQ 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 BullMQ MCP Server:

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