AI agents may call emem_sar_forest_disturbance to permanently remove or destroy resources in emem — Earth memory protocol. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call emem_sar_forest_disturbance in a loop, permanently destroying resources in emem — Earth memory protocol. There is no undo for destructive operations. PolicyLayer 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.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access emem_sar_forest_disturbance gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Cloud- and night-independent Sentinel-1 C-band confirmation of forest disturbance. Intact forest scatters VV strongly + stably (canopy volume scattering); clearing collapses that term so VV backscatter DROPS ~3-5 dB. Samples VV at a baseline-year July-1 anchor and the latest scene, reports vv_drop_db = baseline − recent and a disturbed flag when the drop ≥ 3 dB (Reiche et al. 2018, RSE 204:147). Both VV reads are signed Primary facts; the response cites both fact_cids. Honest inconclusive when either S1 vintage is unavailable. Source: Microsoft Planetary Computer sentinel-1-rtc (anonymous SAS — no requester-pays, no API key). When to use: Call to corroborate or scout forest clearing where cloud blocks the optical products — radar sees through cloud and at night, catching wet-season clearing the annual Hansen/JRC-TMF layers and a single cloudy Sentinel-2 pass miss (the gap RADD was meant to fill). This is an ADDITIVE scout signal, NOT a standalone legal verdict: a VV drop can also be transient (soil moisture, harvest, flood recession), so confirm with the optical consensus (emem_eudr_dds or emem_deforestation_alert) before crediting a decision.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the emem — Earth memory protocol MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the emem — Earth memory protocol MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for emem_sar_forest_disturbance: 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 emem — Earth memory protocol. Nothing to install.
emem_sar_forest_disturbance is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the emem_sar_forest_disturbance 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for emem_sar_forest_disturbance. 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.
emem_sar_forest_disturbance is provided by the emem — Earth memory protocol MCP server (oci:ghcr.io/vortx-ai/emem:latest). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
