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

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

## Why clear_cache is rated Critical

Clearing a cache is a non-reversible deletion of stored data. While cache data is generally regeneratable, the act itself is destructive (data is purged) and could disrupt ongoing recon sessions or cause loss of intermediate results in a security assessment workflow. Severity is medium because the blast radius is limited to cached/ephemeral data rather than primary persistent data.

From the tool's own definition: "'Clear the cache' — clearing cache irreversibly removes cached data from the server, which cannot be recovered once purged."

## Use case

AI agents call clear_cache to permanently remove resources in Intellirecon Console, 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 Intellirecon Console:

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