WHAT IT DOES

What stop_file_watch does on Claude MCP Server Integration

AI agents invoke stop_file_watch to trigger actions in Claude MCP Server Integration. 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 IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why stop_file_watch needs a policy

While stopping a file watch is not destructive (data is not deleted or permanently altered) and does not write data, it executes an action that controls a system process. The operation modifies the runtime state of the file monitoring system.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'stop_file_watch' and description 'ファイル監視を停止します' (Stop file monitoring) indicate it terminates a file-watching process. This triggers an external operation (stopping a monitor/watcher) whose effects depend on which watcher instance is targeted.
