Get current session statistics: observation count, token usage, branch, compression history, current task.
AI agents call get_session_info to retrieve information from Codewatch Memory without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and reports session statistics without modifying any data or triggering external operations. It is purely observational and informational in nature, making it a Read category risk with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_session_info' and description 'Get current session statistics' indicate data retrieval only.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get current session statistics: observation count, token usage, branch, compression history, current task. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Codewatch Memory MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Codewatch Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_session_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 Codewatch Memory. Nothing to install.
get_session_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_session_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_session_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_session_info is provided by the Codewatch Memory MCP server (klausandrade/codewatch). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
