Why memory_get_event needs a policy

The tool name pattern 'get_*' typically indicates a read operation that retrieves data without side effects. However, the empty description and non-standard naming (does not match SNS/SQS operations) reduce confidence. Absence of keywords like 'delete', 'send', 'create', or 'execute' suggests no destructive or execute capability. Classified as Read with low-to-medium confidence due to lack of descriptive information.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'memory_get_event' suggests retrieval of event data without modification. Description is empty, limiting confidence.

How to control memory_get_event

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "memory_get_event": {}
  }
}

memory_get_event is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Awslabs Amazon Sns Sqs — 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.
