WHAT IT DOES

What database-static-credentials-rotate does on Vault MCP Server (mschuchard)

AI agents invoke database-static-credentials-rotate to trigger actions in Vault MCP Server (mschuchard). 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 database-static-credentials-rotate needs a policy

Credential rotation in Vault for database static roles triggers an active operation that immediately rotates (changes) the password for a database static role account. This is an Execute-level action as it triggers an external operation against a database backend. It is not purely Destructive (the old credential is replaced, not deleted in an unrecoverable sense), but misuse could lock out database access.
