How to control modify-replication-group-shard-configuration ↓
AI agents use modify-replication-group-shard-configuration to create or update resources in Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server environment.
This tool modifies replication group shard configuration, which is a Write-category action—it creates or modifies data/infrastructure reversibly. While high-impact (replication groups are critical infrastructure), it is not Destructive because shard reconfigurations are typically reversible operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'modify-replication-group-shard-configuration' indicates modification of replication group shard configuration. 'Modify' is a write operation that alters infrastructure configuration.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access modify-replication-group-shard-configuration gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for modify-replication-group-shard-configuration:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"modify-replication-group-shard-configuration": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "modify-replication-group-shard-configuration_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} modify-replication-group-shard-configuration stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

modify-replication-group-shard-configuration. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for modify-replication-group-shard-configuration: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server. Nothing to install.
modify-replication-group-shard-configuration is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the modify-replication-group-shard-configuration rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for modify-replication-group-shard-configuration. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
modify-replication-group-shard-configuration is provided by the Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.bedrock-kb-retrieval-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
