WHAT IT DOES

What manage_aws_glue_sessions does on Amazon MQ MCP Server

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why manage_aws_glue_sessions needs a policy

AWS Glue sessions involve executing ETL code and data processing jobs. 'Manage' suggests lifecycle operations (create/start/stop/delete sessions), which span Execute and potentially Destructive categories. The most severe plausible action is Execute (running Glue sessions/code). Confidence is low because the description is empty, leaving the exact scope uncertain.

From the tool's definition Tool name: 'manage_aws_glue_sessions' — implies creating, modifying, or terminating AWS Glue interactive sessions (which run code/ETL jobs).
