WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why memory_store needs a policy

This tool writes/persists data (conversation content) into a vector memory store. It creates new entries reversibly and does not delete or execute code. Misuse could lead to polluted memory affecting future AI behavior, warranting medium severity.

memory_store Rate-limited

memory_store stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
