What get_memory_info does on CLIO Adios
AI agents call get_memory_info to retrieve information from CLIO Adios without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_memory_info is rated Low
This tool queries system memory statistics (capacity, usage percentages, availability). It is a read-only operation that retrieves information about the system state without modifying, executing, or affecting any data or processes. The low severity reflects minimal risk even if an AI misuses it—the worst case is unnecessary API calls.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get RAM and swap capacity, usage percentages, and availability' — retrieves system memory information with no side effects or data modification.

The rule that runs get_memory_info safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and CLIO Adios, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_memory_info, this is the rule to start with:
get_memory_info is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect CLIO Adios, apply this rule, and every get_memory_info call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about get_memory_info
Get RAM and swap capacity, usage percentages, and availability. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CLIO Adios MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the CLIO Adios MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_memory_info: 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 CLIO Adios. Nothing to install.
get_memory_info is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_memory_info 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 get_memory_info. 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.
get_memory_info is provided by the CLIO Adios MCP server (pypi:clio-kit). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
