What does the reset tool do? +

Clear the current thinking session and start fresh. Use when beginning a new problem.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Maxential Thinking 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 reset? +

Register the Maxential Thinking MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for reset: 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 Maxential Thinking. Nothing to install.

What risk level is reset? +

reset 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 reset? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the reset 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.

How do I block reset completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for reset. 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 reset? +

reset is provided by the Maxential Thinking MCP server (@bam-devcrew/maxential-thinking-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Maxential Thinking tool call.
