I think this might be what you want:
automark[chapter]{chapter}
automark*[section]{section}

esdd · Answer

You can use
automark[chapter]{chapter}
automark*[section]{}

Example:
documentclass[
  listof=totoc,bibliography=totoc,
  a5paper,
  fontsize=7pt,% changed!
  %openright,% default
  %twoside=true% default
]{scrbook}
usepackage{blindtext}% only for dummy text
usepackage[headsepline=true,
  %autooneside = false% not needed with the default twoside=true
]{scrlayer-scrpage}% sets page style scrheadings automatically
AfterTOCHead{pagestyle{plain}}
AfterStartingTOC{clearpage}

automark[chapter]{chapter}
automark*[section]{}

begin{document}
chapter{Test}
Blindtext[20]
Blinddocument
end{document}
