Revoke an API key. This immediately invalidates the key and cannot be undone.
AI agents call revoke_api_key to permanently remove resources in NeuronSearchLab — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently revokes an API key, which is an irreversible action. Once revoked, the key cannot be restored and any systems relying on it will immediately stop functioning. This fits the Destructive category as it involves an action that cannot be undone.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'immediately invalidates the key and cannot be undone' — irreversible deletion/invalidation of a security credential.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Revoke an API key. This immediately invalidates the key and cannot be undone. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the NeuronSearchLab MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the NeuronSearchLab MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for revoke_api_key: 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 NeuronSearchLab. Nothing to install.
revoke_api_key is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the revoke_api_key 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for revoke_api_key. 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.
revoke_api_key is provided by the NeuronSearchLab MCP server (neuronsearchlab/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
revoke_api_key is one line of NeuronSearchLab's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
