From the tool's definition Tool name 'add_project_memory' indicates data creation/addition to a project management system. Sibling tools include 'delete_project_memory' and 'update_project_memory', confirming this is a data manipulation tool within a persistent storage system (mem0…

How to control add_project_memory

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and mem0 MCP Server for Project Management, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for add_project_memory:

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

add_project_memory 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.
