## Why preview_memory_pointer_lifecycle_remediation is rated Low

This tool is classified as Read because it previews changes without executing writes. The explicit mention of 'guarded' and 'without writes' confirms that it retrieves and displays information about memory pointer lifecycle remediation without side effects. The severity is low because preview operations have minimal blast radius—they cannot alter data or trigger unintended consequences.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool description explicitly states 'Preview' and 'without writes', indicating it performs read-only operations that retrieve or display information about pointer lifecycle remediation without modifying any data."

## Use case

AI agents call preview_memory_pointer_lifecycle_remediation to retrieve information from Mapi Agent Memory without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Mapi Agent Memory:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "preview_memory_pointer_lifecycle_remediation": {}
  }
}
```
