resolve_conflict

Resolve a merge conflict by providing the correct resolved content. Read both conflict versions, verify against the current codebase, then provide the accurate resolved summary. Do NOT just pick a side — write the truth.

How to control resolve_conflict ↓

AI agents use resolve_conflict to create or update resources in MegaMemory — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your MegaMemory environment.

Medium Risk

This tool modifies persistent knowledge graph data (the resolved conflict content), making it a Write operation. Severity is high because an AI agent misclassifying or incorrectly resolving conflicts could corrupt architectural knowledge, decisions, or concept relationships across sessions, affecting downstream reasoning and code generation.

From the tool's definition Tool 'resolve_conflict' performs 'Resolve a merge conflict by providing the correct resolved content', which modifies the knowledge graph state by writing a resolved summary.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access resolve_conflict gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MegaMemory, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for resolve_conflict:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "resolve_conflict": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "resolve_conflict_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

resolve_conflict stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register MegaMemory — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

What does the resolve_conflict tool do? +

Resolve a merge conflict by providing the correct resolved content. Read both conflict versions, verify against the current codebase, then provide the accurate resolved summary. Do NOT just pick a side — write the truth. It is categorised as a Write tool in the MegaMemory MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on resolve_conflict? +

Register the MegaMemory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for resolve_conflict: 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 MegaMemory. Nothing to install.

What risk level is resolve_conflict? +

resolve_conflict is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit resolve_conflict? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the resolve_conflict 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.

How do I block resolve_conflict completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for resolve_conflict. 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.

What MCP server provides resolve_conflict? +

resolve_conflict is provided by the MegaMemory MCP server (0xk3vin/megamemory). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every MegaMemory tool call.
