What delete_saved_search does on Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server
AI agents call delete_saved_search to permanently remove resources in Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why delete_saved_search is rated Critical
The delete_saved_search tool performs an irreversible deletion operation on saved search records within the knowledge graph memory system. Once deleted, the saved search cannot be recovered through normal means. While the impact is scoped to a single search artifact rather than the entire system, deletion of user data is a destructive action.
From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly contains 'delete'; description states 'Delete a saved search' — indicates irreversible removal of stored data without undo capability.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs delete_saved_search safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_saved_search, this is the rule to start with:
delete_saved_search is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server, apply this rule, and every delete_saved_search call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about delete_saved_search
Delete a saved search. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_saved_search: 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 Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server. Nothing to install.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_saved_search 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 delete_saved_search. 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.
delete_saved_search is provided by the Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server MCP server (danielsimonjr/memory-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
