AI agents use session_brief to create or modify resources in Colour Memory. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call session_brief repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Colour Memory.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so session_brief only ever does what you allow.

What does the session_brief tool do? +

The money endpoint. One call returns a complete forensic colour brief. Runs coverage gap analysis, pulls best archive colours, checks for anachronisms, scores claim roles (anchor/support/analogue/provocation/reject), auto-rejects stubs, generates editorial argument, act structure, pull quote, closing line, and image prompt via Claude. This replaces chaining coverage_gap + archive_report_brief + anachronism_guard + resonance_index + evidence_gap separately. Input: title, audience, themes, archives, period, tone. Output: complete deliverable package ready for PDF or editorial use. Tone options: forensic (default), editorial, clinical, narrative.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Colour Memory MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on session_brief? +

Register the Colour Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for session_brief: 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 Colour Memory. Nothing to install.

What risk level is session_brief? +

session_brief is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit session_brief? +

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

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

session_brief is provided by the Colour Memory MCP server (https://colour-memory-api-production.up.railway.app/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Colour Memory tool call.
