Part of the AWS Bedrock AgentCore MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents may call identity_delete_api_key_provider to permanently remove or destroy resources in AWS Bedrock AgentCore MCP Server. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.
