# diary_read Read recent diary entries for a specialist agent. Returns entries in reverse chronological order. Optionally filter by topic. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `diary_read`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/diary-read ## Facts - Tool: `diary_read` - Server: Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server (`danielsimonjr/memory-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/danielsimonjr/memory-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "diary_read", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why diary_read is rated Low This tool retrieves and queries existing diary entries with optional filtering. It performs no write operations, does not execute external code, does not delete data, and has no financial implications. The operation is purely informational and read-only, making it a Read category risk with low severity due to minimal blast radius if misused—the worst outcome being unauthorized access to historical information. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Read recent diary entries' and 'Returns entries in reverse chronological order.' The verb 'read' and the retrieval-only operation indicate no modifications, deletions, or side effects." ## Use case AI agents call diary_read to retrieve information from Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "diary_read": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server (224) - `adaptive_reduce_memories` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/adaptive-reduce-memories.md - `cache_clear` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/cache-clear.md - `clear_expired_memories` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/clear-expired-memories.md - `clear_heuristics` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/clear-heuristics.md - `clear_project_context` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/clear-project-context.md - `delete_entities` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/delete-entities.md - `delete_observations` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/delete-observations.md - `delete_relations` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/delete-relations.md - `delete_saved_search` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/delete-saved-search.md - `deregister_ref` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/deregister-ref.md - `forget_memory` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/forget-memory.md - `forget_weak_memories` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/forget-weak-memories.md - `invalidate_entity` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/invalidate-entity.md - `rbac_revoke_role` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/rbac-revoke-role.md - `remove_exclusion_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-exclusion-rule.md - `remove_heuristic` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-heuristic.md - `remove_project_command` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-project-command.md - `remove_project_convention` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-project-convention.md - `remove_project_fact` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-project-fact.md - `remove_project_glossary_term` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-project-glossary-term.md - `remove_tag_alias` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-tag-alias.md - `remove_tool_affordance` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/remove-tool-affordance.md - `consolidate_session` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/consolidate-session.md - `dream_run_now` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/dream-run-now.md - `dream_start` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/dream-start.md - `dream_stop` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/dream-stop.md - `end_session` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/end-session.md - `parse_adr_markdown` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/parse-adr-markdown.md - `run_consolidation_now` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/run-consolidation-now.md - `run_decay_cycle` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp/run-decay-cycle.md - …and 194 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/danielsimonjr-memory-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
