What clear_stored_data does on Motor Current Signature Analysis

AI agents call clear_stored_data to permanently remove resources in Motor Current Signature Analysis — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Why clear_stored_data needs a policy

This tool permanently removes data from both disk and memory storage without recovery options. This is a destructive operation that cannot be undone. Although the data domain is technical (motor analysis signals/spectra) rather than critical business data, the irreversible nature and potential loss of experimental or diagnostic results justifies 'high' severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'clear_stored_data' and description 'Delete stored signals and spectra from disk and memory' explicitly perform irreversible deletion of data.

How to control clear_stored_data

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Motor Current Signature Analysis, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for clear_stored_data:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "clear_stored_data"
  ]
}

clear_stored_data disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register Motor Current Signature Analysis — 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.
