Get current developer momentum: last checkpoint, next step, blockers, and branch context. Use this to understand where the developer left off. Pass tier or model to control detail level.
AI agents call get_momentum 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 queries persistent memory to surface development context. It has no side effects, makes no modifications, executes no code, and cannot delete or move resources. It is purely informational retrieval, making it a Read category risk with low severity—inappropriate use would only expose cached information about development state, not enable harmful actions.
From the tool's definition Tool retrieves state information ('last checkpoint, next step, blockers, and branch context') without modifying or executing any operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get current developer momentum: last checkpoint, next step, blockers, and branch context. Use this to understand where the developer left off. Pass tier or model to control detail level. 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_momentum: 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_momentum 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_momentum 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_momentum. 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_momentum 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.
