What kage_graph_registry does on Kage

AI agents use kage_graph_registry to create or update resources in Kage — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Kage environment.

Why kage_graph_registry needs a policy

The tool 'builds' (creates/writes) a signed manifest artifact that consolidates multiple data sources. This is a write operation — it generates and stores a new manifest document. It is not purely reading existing data, nor does it delete anything or execute arbitrary code.

From the tool's definition Build a signed graph-registry manifest for generated memory graph, code graph, indexes, metrics, audit, inbox, source packet IDs, packet hashes, and repo git state.

How to control kage_graph_registry

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Kage, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for kage_graph_registry:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "kage_graph_registry": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "kage_graph_registry_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

kage_graph_registry stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Kage — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

How do I enforce a policy on kage_graph_registry? +

Register the Kage MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for kage_graph_registry: 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 Kage. Nothing to install.

What risk level is kage_graph_registry? +

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

Can I rate-limit kage_graph_registry? +

How do I block kage_graph_registry completely? +

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

kage_graph_registry is provided by the Kage MCP server (@kage-core/kage-graph-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
