AI agents invoke memento_toggle_kg_extraction_scheduler to trigger actions in Memento. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
This tool executes control operations over a background scheduler. While not destructive or immediately dangerous, it modifies system state and triggers/stops external operations whose effects depend on execution context (e.g., stopping the scheduler could interrupt ongoing knowledge graph extraction). The deprecated status slightly lowers confidence but does not change the core classification.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'toggle' and description states it 'Start or stop the background KG auto-extraction scheduler' — actions that trigger or halt background processes.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
[DEPRECATED] Start or stop the background KG auto-extraction scheduler. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Memento MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Memento MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for memento_toggle_kg_extraction_scheduler: 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 Memento. Nothing to install.
memento_toggle_kg_extraction_scheduler is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the memento_toggle_kg_extraction_scheduler 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 memento_toggle_kg_extraction_scheduler. 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.
memento_toggle_kg_extraction_scheduler is provided by the Memento MCP server (joyciakira/memento). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
