WHAT IT DOES

What sqlserver_kill_session does on Multi-Database MCP Server

AI agents invoke sqlserver_kill_session to trigger actions in Multi-Database MCP 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 IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why sqlserver_kill_session needs a policy

Killing a database session forcibly terminates an active connection, which can interrupt running transactions, cause application errors, and potentially lead to data loss from rolled-back transactions. This is an irreversible action that affects external state (active sessions/connections), making it Execute-level at minimum.

From the tool's definition 'Kill a session by session ID' - terminates an active database session
