Why store_knowledge needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies data (a knowledge entry) in the user's personal knowledge base. It is reversible since the sibling tools include 'delete_knowledge', which can undo storage operations.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Store a new knowledge entry in your personal knowledge base. Use this to save important information, notes, or learnings for later retrieval.' The verb 'Store' combined with 'save' indicates persistent data creation/modification…

How to control store_knowledge

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

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

store_knowledge 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.
