invarium-ai/invarium Destructive Risk 4/5

AI agents may call invarium_manage_scenario to permanently remove or destroy resources in Invarium. 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.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call invarium_manage_scenario in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Invarium. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

What does the invarium_manage_scenario tool do? +

Manage a scenario: update its fields, delete it, or toggle its active state. IMPORTANT: Deletion is permanent and irreversible. When action="delete", you MUST first call this tool WITHOUT confirm=true. The tool will return a confirmation prompt listing the scenario to be deleted. Show this to the user and only re-call with confirm=true after they explicitly approve. NEVER set confirm=true on the first call. NEVER delete multiple scenarios in a loop without showing the user the full list and getting one explicit confirmation for the batch. Args: scenario_id: ID of the scenario to manage. action: Operation to perform — "update", "delete", or "toggle". name: New name for the scenario (update only). description: New description for the scenario (update only). expected_behavior: New expected behavior text (update only). tags: JSON array string of tags, e.g. '["auth", "edge-case"]' (update only). confirm: Required for delete — must be true to execute deletion. First call without confirm to get a confirmation prompt. Returns: A confirmation string on success, or an error message on failure.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Invarium MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on invarium_manage_scenario? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for invarium_manage_scenario. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Invarium MCP server.

What risk level is invarium_manage_scenario? +

How do I block invarium_manage_scenario completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for invarium_manage_scenario. 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.
