What clear_index does on Ghidra Api

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

Why clear_index needs a policy

The tool permanently deletes the workflow index (ChromaDB collections), which cannot be undone. This is an irreversible destructive action on stored data. While the blast radius is limited to the index itself (not production systems or financial data), destruction of the searchable API documentation index would severely impact the functionality of this MCP server for all users until it is rebuilt.

From the tool's definition Delete the workflow index (ChromaDB collections) - explicitly states 'Delete' which is an irreversible operation that removes data
