AI agents invoke recall to trigger processes or run actions in MCP Memory Gateway. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
recall can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

Recall relevant past feedback, memories, and prevention rules for the current task. Call this at the start of any task to inject past learnings into the conversation.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the MCP Memory Gateway MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the MCP Memory Gateway MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for recall: 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 MCP Memory Gateway. Nothing to install.
recall is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the recall 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 recall. 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.
recall is provided by the MCP Memory Gateway MCP server (IgorGanapolsky/mcp-memory-gateway). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
