What hive.job_create does on Mnemos

AI agents use hive.job_create to create or update resources in Mnemos — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mnemos environment.

Medium Risk

Why hive.job_create needs a policy

The tool creates and submits new work items (jobs) into a queue, which is a write operation. It modifies state by adding records but does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move funds. Severity is medium because job submissions could trigger downstream agent actions, but the tool itself only creates queue entries.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'hive.job_create' and description 'Submit work into the Hive Mind triage queue' indicate the tool creates new job records in a queue system. This is a reversible write operation that adds data to persistent storage.

How to control hive.job_create

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "hive.job_create": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "hive.job_create_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

hive.job_create 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Mnemos — 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.
