What 1ly_revoke_key does on 1ly
AI agents call 1ly_revoke_key to permanently remove resources in 1ly, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why 1ly_revoke_key is rated Critical
Revoking an API key cannot be undone; the key is permanently invalidated. This is an irreversible destructive action with high blast radius since misuse would disable authenticated access to the store's APIs for any agent or service relying on that key.
From the tool's definition Revoke an API key — revoking an API key is an irreversible action that permanently invalidates the key, preventing any future use.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs 1ly_revoke_key safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 1ly, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For 1ly_revoke_key, this is the rule to start with:
1ly_revoke_key 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 1ly, apply this rule, and every 1ly_revoke_key call is checked against it from then on.
