WHAT IT DOES

What read_graph does on Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server

AI agents call read_graph 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 read_graph is rated Low

This tool retrieves the complete knowledge graph structure and its contents without any capability to modify, delete, or execute operations. It is a pure read operation with no side effects, fitting the Read category definition.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'read_graph' with description 'Read the entire knowledge graph' explicitly indicates data retrieval with no modification capability.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

read_graph Allowed

read_graph 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": {
    "read_graph": {}
  }
}

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 read_graph call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about read_graph

What does the read_graph tool do? +

Read the entire knowledge graph. 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 read_graph? +

Register the Enhanced Knowledge Graph Memory Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for read_graph: 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 read_graph? +

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

Can I rate-limit read_graph? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the read_graph 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 read_graph completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for read_graph. 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 read_graph? +

read_graph 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.
