What auth_logout does on Meducate MCP

AI agents call auth_logout to retrieve information from Meducate MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why auth_logout needs a policy

Even though auth_logout only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
