clear_graph
Clear all data for specified group IDs
Part of the Graphiti MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL
AI agents may call clear_graph to permanently remove or destroy resources in Graphiti. 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.
WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON CLEAR_GRAPH
Without a policy, an AI agent could call clear_graph in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Graphiti. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.
RECOMMENDED POLICY
Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

How do I enforce a policy on clear_graph?
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for clear_graph. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Graphiti MCP server.
What risk level is clear_graph?
clear_graph is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Can I rate-limit clear_graph?
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the clear_graph rule in your Intercept 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.
How do I block clear_graph completely?
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for clear_graph. 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.
What MCP server provides clear_graph?
clear_graph is provided by the Graphiti MCP server (getzep/graphiti). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
