What ultimate_write_memory does on Commodore 64 Ultimate MCP Server

AI agents use ultimate_write_memory to create or update resources in Commodore 64 Ultimate MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Commodore 64 Ultimate MCP Server environment.

Why ultimate_write_memory needs a policy

This tool directly writes data to memory addresses on the C64 hardware. While technically a 'Write' operation, it carries high severity because arbitrary memory writes on a running system can corrupt program state, crash the system, or overwrite critical memory regions. However, it is generally reversible (memory can be overwritten again), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive.

How to control ultimate_write_memory

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Commodore 64 Ultimate MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for ultimate_write_memory:

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

ultimate_write_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.
