What clear_console does on Cocos
AI agents call clear_console 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.
Why clear_console is rated Critical
Clearing the console irreversibly removes all existing log/output history from the editor console. While the blast radius is low (only console output is lost, not project data), the action cannot be undone, making it Destructive rather than Write.
From the tool's definition clear_console — 'Clear editor console'
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs clear_console safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Cocos, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For clear_console, this is the rule to start with:
clear_console is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Cocos, apply this rule, and every clear_console call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about clear_console
Clear editor console. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Cocos MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Cocos MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for clear_console: 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 Cocos. Nothing to install.
clear_console 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 clear_console 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 clear_console. 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.
clear_console is provided by the Cocos MCP server (caravanglory/cocos-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
