What end_session does on Automagik Tools

AI agents call end_session to permanently remove resources in Automagik Tools — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Why end_session needs a policy

Ending a session frees associated memory and state, which cannot be recovered once destroyed. This is an irreversible action that destroys a resource (the session), making it Destructive. However, the blast radius is limited since it only affects a single consultation session, not persistent data, hence medium severity.

From the tool's definition 'End a specific Gemini consultation session to free up memory' — terminates/destroys a session state irreversibly

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access end_session gives an agent:

How to control end_session

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Automagik Tools, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for end_session:

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

end_session 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 Automagik Tools — 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.

Questions about end_session

What does the end_session tool do? +

End a specific Gemini consultation session to free up memory. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Automagik Tools MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on end_session? +

Register the Automagik Tools MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for end_session: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Automagik Tools. Nothing to install.

What risk level is end_session? +

end_session is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit end_session? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the end_session rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block end_session completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for end_session. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides end_session? +

end_session is provided by the Automagik Tools MCP server (namastexlabs/automagik-tools). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
