Get a compact context snapshot: what you were doing, what is next, and momentum. Use this for quick orientation without a full briefing.
AI agents call get_context_snapshot to retrieve information from KeepGoing MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves historical context and memory snapshots from the KeepGoing server without modifying, creating, deleting, executing code, or committing financial transactions. It is purely informational and enables AI assistants to re-orient themselves by reading previously captured development checkpoints. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only read its own or accessible project history.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_context_snapshot' and description 'Get a compact context snapshot' indicate retrieval of stored session/project context data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get a compact context snapshot: what you were doing, what is next, and momentum. Use this for quick orientation without a full briefing. It is categorised as a Read tool in the KeepGoing MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the KeepGoing MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_context_snapshot: 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 KeepGoing MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_context_snapshot 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_context_snapshot 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_context_snapshot. 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_context_snapshot is provided by the KeepGoing MCP Server MCP server (keepgoing-dev/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
