What revoke_access does on KVMFleet MCP Server

Why revoke_access needs a policy

Revoking active JIT (Just-In-Time) access is an irreversible action that immediately terminates user permissions. While not data deletion, it destroys an active access state/grant that cannot be recovered without explicit re-approval. This fits the Destructive category as it's a one-way action with consequences that require additional steps to reverse.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'revoke_access' combined with explicit description marker 'Destructive —' and the irreversible nature of revoking an active access grant. The action cannot be easily undone without re-granting access through a separate process.
