Flush all cache entries.
AI agents call cache_flush_all to permanently remove resources in Amazon SageMaker AI MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Flushing all cache entries removes all cached data at once, which is irreversible and has a high blast radius. All cached data is lost, potentially affecting performance and availability of dependent services. The bulk nature and irreversibility place this in the Destructive category.
From the tool's definition 'Flush all cache entries' - flushing all entries is an irreversible bulk deletion of cached data

Flush all cache entries. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Amazon SageMaker AI MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Amazon SageMaker AI MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for cache_flush_all: 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 SageMaker AI MCP Server. Nothing to install.
cache_flush_all is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the cache_flush_all 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 cache_flush_all. 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.
cache_flush_all is provided by the Amazon SageMaker AI MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.sagemaker-ai-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
