Read one visible Lore memory by id.
AI agents call memory_get to retrieve information from Lore Context without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves a single memory object by identifier. It has no side effects, does not modify state, execute code, delete data, or involve financial operations. The 'visible' qualifier suggests access control is already in place. The minimal blast radius (one memory read) and purely informational nature justify low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'memory_get' and description 'Read one visible Lore memory by id' explicitly indicate retrieval of data with no modification or execution. The verb 'Read' and qualifier 'get' are canonical Read patterns.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Read one visible Lore memory by id. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Lore Context MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Lore Context MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for memory_get: 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 Lore Context. Nothing to install.
memory_get 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 memory_get 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 memory_get. 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.
memory_get is provided by the Lore Context MCP server (Lore-Context/lore-context). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
