AI agents call linear_logoutAllSessions to permanently remove resources in Linear — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Revoking all sessions is an irreversible action that immediately terminates all active user sessions across all devices/clients, effectively locking everyone out. This cannot be undone without re-authentication and has a very high blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Revoke all sessions
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access linear_logoutAllSessions gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Linear, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for linear_logoutAllSessions:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"linear_logoutAllSessions"
]
}linear_logoutAllSessions disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

Revoke all sessions. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Linear MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Linear MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for linear_logoutAllSessions: 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 Linear. Nothing to install.
linear_logoutAllSessions 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 linear_logoutAllSessions 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 linear_logoutAllSessions. 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.
linear_logoutAllSessions is provided by the Linear MCP server (tacticlaunch/mcp-linear). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
