Remove annotations from a node.
AI agents call clear_annotations to permanently remove resources in Trailmark MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Clearing/removing annotations from a node is a destructive operation as the data is deleted without an obvious undo mechanism. The blast radius is medium since it only affects annotation metadata rather than source code or repository structure, but it could permanently remove important analysis notes or security findings if misused.
From the tool's definition 'Remove annotations from a node' — the word 'remove' indicates irreversible deletion of annotation data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Remove annotations from a node. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Trailmark MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Trailmark MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for clear_annotations: 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 Trailmark MCP Server. Nothing to install.
clear_annotations 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 clear_annotations 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 clear_annotations. 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.
clear_annotations is provided by the Trailmark MCP Server MCP server (parsiya/trailmark-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
clear_annotations is one line of Trailmark MCP Server's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
