What agent_clear_session does on Atlas

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

Why agent_clear_session needs a policy

The tool permanently removes session history data. While the blast radius is limited to a single session's history (not clinical FHIR documents themselves), this action cannot be undone, making it Destructive. Severity is medium because it affects only conversation/session metadata rather than primary clinical data.

From the tool's definition 'Clear agent session history' — clearing session history is an irreversible deletion of stored conversation/session data for a given session ID.
