WHAT IT DOES

What find_causes does on Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server

AI agents call find_causes 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.

RISK

Why find_causes is rated Low

Even though find_causes only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs find_causes 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 find_causes, this is the rule to start with:

find_causes Allowed

find_causes 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": {
    "find_causes": {}
  }
}

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

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server, apply this rule, and every find_causes call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about find_causes

What does the find_causes tool do? +

3B.6 \u2014 Find causal chains ending at the named effect. Searches paths from candidate causes via causal relation types (causes/enables/prevents/precedes/correlates). Sorted by score = product of per-edge causalStrength. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on find_causes? +

Register the Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for find_causes: 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.

What risk level is find_causes? +

find_causes is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit find_causes? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the find_causes 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.

How do I block find_causes completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for find_causes. 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.

What MCP server provides find_causes? +

find_causes 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.
