WHAT IT DOES

What get_error_patterns does on CogniRepo

AI agents call get_error_patterns to retrieve information from CogniRepo without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why get_error_patterns is rated Low

The tool appears to query or retrieve error pattern information from the server's persistent memory system without modifying, executing operations, or causing destructive effects.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_error_patterns' suggests retrieval of existing error data. The naming convention ('get_*') is consistent with other Read-category tools on this server (get_agent_bootstrap, get_last_context, get_session_brief).

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs get_error_patterns safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and CogniRepo, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_error_patterns, this is the rule to start with:

get_error_patterns Allowed

get_error_patterns is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_error_patterns": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect CogniRepo, apply this rule, and every get_error_patterns call is checked against it from then on.
