What debug_clear_breakpoints does on Polybugger

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

Why debug_clear_breakpoints needs a policy

Clearing breakpoints removes debugging configuration that may have been carefully set up. The 'all files' scope makes this potentially irreversible at scale (no indication of undo/restore). While not deleting user data or code, it destroys debugging session state which could disrupt active debugging workflows and is not easily recoverable without re-adding each breakpoint manually.

From the tool's definition 'Clear breakpoints from file or all files' — irreversibly removes breakpoint configuration data, with 'all files' option having broad blast radius
