What optimize_search_index does on Work Memory MCP Server

AI agents invoke optimize_search_index to trigger actions in Work Memory MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why optimize_search_index needs a policy

This tool modifies the search index structure by removing orphaned keywords, merging similar keywords, and compressing data. While some of these actions (removing orphaned keywords) could be considered destructive, the overall operation is a maintenance/optimization routine that restructures internal index data. It does not directly delete user content but does irreversibly alter index structures (merging keywords).

From the tool's definition 검색 인덱스를 최적화합니다. 고아 키워드 제거, 유사 키워드 병합, 압축 등을 수행하여 검색 성능을 향상시킵니다. (Optimizes search index: removes orphaned keywords, merges similar keywords, performs compression)

How to control optimize_search_index

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "optimize_search_index": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "optimize_search_index_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

optimize_search_index stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Work Memory MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Questions about optimize_search_index

What does the optimize_search_index tool do? +

검색 인덱스를 최적화합니다. 고아 키워드 제거, 유사 키워드 병합, 압축 등을 수행하여 검색 성능을 향상시킵니다. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Work Memory MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on optimize_search_index? +

Register the Work Memory MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for optimize_search_index: 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 Work Memory MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is optimize_search_index? +

optimize_search_index is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit optimize_search_index? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the optimize_search_index 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.

How do I block optimize_search_index completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for optimize_search_index. 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.

What MCP server provides optimize_search_index? +

optimize_search_index is provided by the Work Memory MCP Server MCP server (moontmsai/work-memory-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Work Memory MCP Server tool call.

Start from Work Memory MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
