AI agents call thinkneo_read_memory to retrieve information from ThinkNEO Control Plane without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though thinkneo_read_memory only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access thinkneo_read_memory gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Read Claude Code project memory files. Without arguments, returns the MEMORY.md index listing all available memories. With a filename argument, returns the full content of that specific memory file. Use this to access project context, user preferences, feedback, and reference notes persisted across Claude Code sessions.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ThinkNEO Control Plane MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the ThinkNEO Control Plane MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for thinkneo_read_memory: 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 ThinkNEO Control Plane. Nothing to install.
thinkneo_read_memory is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the thinkneo_read_memory 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 thinkneo_read_memory. 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.
thinkneo_read_memory is provided by the ThinkNEO Control Plane MCP server (https://mcp.thinkneo.ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
