What evaluateInsight does on MCP Notes

AI agents call evaluateInsight to retrieve information from MCP Notes without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why evaluateInsight needs a policy

This tool performs analysis and scoring of provided content using defined criteria (Actionability, Longevity, Findability, Future Reference Value). It reads/processes input and returns an evaluation — no data is written, deleted, or executed. It is a pure analytical/read operation with low blast radius since misuse would only produce an incorrect evaluation score.
