What clear_automation does on Ableton MCP

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

Why clear_automation needs a policy

Clearing automation removes previously recorded automation data from a track or project. This is a destructive, likely irreversible action that can delete significant creative work. The description explicitly says it can clear all automation ('全て'), making the blast radius high if misused.

From the tool's definition 'クリア' means 'clear' in Japanese — the tool clears automation data (specific parameters or all). Clearing automation is an irreversible removal of recorded parameter data.
