What sap_disconnect does on MCP SAP GUI Server

AI agents invoke sap_disconnect to trigger actions in MCP SAP GUI Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why sap_disconnect needs a policy

This tool terminates an active SAP GUI session and releases associated resources. While not destructive (no data is deleted), it executes an external operation with real side effects — ending a session mid-transaction could interrupt workflows or cause unsaved data loss. It falls under Execute as it triggers an external operation (session disconnection) whose impact depends on the current state of the SAP session.

From the tool's definition Disconnect from the current SAP session and release the binding.

How to control sap_disconnect

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP SAP GUI Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for sap_disconnect:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "sap_disconnect": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "sap_disconnect_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

sap_disconnect stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register MCP SAP GUI Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
