WHAT IT DOES

What preview_memory_steward_before_action does on Mapi Agent Memory

AI agents call preview_memory_steward_before_action 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.

RISK

Why preview_memory_steward_before_action is rated Low

Even though preview_memory_steward_before_action only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
