Clear application data for a package
AI agents call clear_app_data to permanently remove resources in AutoBot MCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Clearing app data permanently removes user data, preferences, cache, and settings associated with an application. This is an irreversible operation that destroys information. While not as broad as 'delete_file', it is clearly destructive in nature.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'clear_app_data' and description 'Clear application data for a package' indicate irreversible deletion of application data. This operation cannot be undone once executed.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Clear application data for a package. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the AutoBot MCP MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the AutoBot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for clear_app_data: 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 AutoBot MCP. Nothing to install.
clear_app_data 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_app_data 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_app_data. 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_app_data is provided by the AutoBot MCP server (yz0903/autobot-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
