List all stored memories with pagination. Useful for exploring database content.
AI agents call list_memories to retrieve information from MCP Qdrant Semantic Search without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays existing data from the vector database without creating, modifying, or deleting any records. It is purely informational with pagination support for browsing stored memories. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could discover what memories exist, but cannot alter or remove them. This is a standard Read category operation.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_memories' and description states it 'List[s] all stored memories' - a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_memories gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP Qdrant Semantic Search, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_memories:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_memories": {}
}
} list_memories is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all stored memories with pagination. Useful for exploring database content. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MCP Qdrant Semantic Search MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MCP Qdrant Semantic Search MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_memories: 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 Qdrant Semantic Search. Nothing to install.
list_memories 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 list_memories 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 list_memories. 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.
list_memories is provided by the MCP Qdrant Semantic Search MCP server (muhammedehab35/mcp-qdrant-semantic-search). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from MCP Qdrant Semantic Search, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
