Get the consolidated knowledge profile built from processed memories. Use at the start of conversations to load the full context about a user or agent. Set merged=true (default) for a complete Markdown profile. Set merged=false to paginate through individual knowledge entries.
AI agents call get_knowledge to retrieve information from Memsolus MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries stored knowledge without side effects. It supports pagination and formatting options (merged parameter) but performs only data retrieval. The severity is low because reading memory data poses minimal risk compared to write/destructive operations; misuse would be information disclosure rather than data loss or system compromise.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get the consolidated knowledge profile' and 'load the full context' — retrieval operations with no modification, creation, or deletion of data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the consolidated knowledge profile built from processed memories. Use at the start of conversations to load the full context about a user or agent. Set merged=true (default) for a complete Markdown profile. Set merged=false to paginate through individual knowledge entries. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Memsolus MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Memsolus MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_knowledge: 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 Memsolus MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_knowledge is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_knowledge 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 get_knowledge. 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.
get_knowledge is provided by the Memsolus MCP Server MCP server (memsolus/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
