## Facts

- Tool: `clear_all_reference_images`
- Server: Cocos (`caravanglory/cocos-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/caravanglory-cocos-mcp-server.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/caravanglory/cocos-mcp-server
- Risk category: Destructive (Critical risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Hidden

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "clear_all_reference_images",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why clear_all_reference_images is rated Critical

This tool performs a bulk destructive operation that removes all reference images without individual confirmation, which cannot be undone through normal undo mechanisms if the operation completes. This fits the Destructive category (irreversibly deletes data) rather than Write (reversible modification).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'clear_all_reference_images' and description 'Clear all reference images' indicate irreversible deletion of all reference image assets from a Cocos Creator project."

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

## Use case

AI agents call clear_all_reference_images to permanently remove resources in Cocos, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Hidden**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Cocos:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "clear_all_reference_images"
  ]
}
```
