WHAT IT DOES

What create_memory does on Mapi Agent Memory

AI agents use create_memory to create or update resources in Mapi Agent Memory, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mapi Agent Memory environment.

RISK

Why create_memory is rated Medium

The tool creates or adds memory entries for an AI agent system. While the description is vague about exact effects, 'create_memory' is fundamentally a Write operation—it generates new data structures in the agent's memory state. The 'legacy compatibility alias' qualifier and routing through 'capture reconciliation' suggest potential complexity in side effects, warranting medium severity rather than low.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_memory' which performs creation of data; description indicates it 'may still route through capture reconciliation' suggesting it modifies memory state.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_memory safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mapi Agent Memory, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_memory, this is the rule to start with:

create_memory Rate-limited

create_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.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Mapi Agent Memory, apply this rule, and every create_memory call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about create_memory

What does the create_memory tool do? +

Legacy compatibility alias. May still route through capture reconciliation. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Mapi Agent Memory MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_memory? +

Register the Mapi Agent Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_memory: 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 Mapi Agent Memory. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_memory? +

create_memory is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_memory? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_memory 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.

How do I block create_memory completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_memory. 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.

What MCP server provides create_memory? +

create_memory is provided by the Mapi Agent Memory MCP server (cabo0m/mapi-agent-memory). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
