WHAT IT DOES

What sorted_set_add_incr does on Amazon SageMaker AI MCP Server

AI agents use sorted_set_add_incr to create or update resources in Amazon SageMaker AI MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Amazon SageMaker AI MCP Server environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why sorted_set_add_incr needs a policy

This tool modifies a sorted set data structure by either adding a new member or incrementing an existing member's score. Both operations are Write-category actions: they create or modify data in a reversible manner (can be undone by removal or decrement). There is no destruction, no code execution, and no financial impact.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Add member to sorted set or increment its score' - these are write operations that modify data reversibly. The term 'add' and 'increment' indicate data modification rather than deletion or execution of arbitrary code.
