What console_clear does on CDP-MCP Server

AI agents call console_clear to permanently remove resources in CDP-MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why console_clear needs a policy

Clearing the console message buffer is irreversible: once cleared, the previously captured log entries are gone and cannot be recovered. While the blast radius is low (only diagnostic/log data is lost, not application data), the action itself is non-reversible, placing it in the Destructive category rather than Write.

From the tool's definition 'Clear the console message buffer' — permanently removes all buffered console messages
