store_fact

Extract entities and relationships from natural language text using an LLM, then store them in the knowledge graph. Requires an LLM provider (CEREBRAS_API_KEY or OPENROUTER_API_KEY). Use this to remember information from conversations, documents, or any unstructured text.

What store_fact does on CodeGraph

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

Medium Risk

Why store_fact needs a policy

The tool extracts entities and relationships from text and writes them into a knowledge graph. This is a reversible write operation (facts can be removed/decayed), not destructive. Misuse could pollute the knowledge graph with false or misleading facts, giving it medium severity.

From the tool's definition 'store them in the knowledge graph' and 'Use this to remember information from conversations, documents, or any unstructured text'

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access store_fact gives an agent:

How to control store_fact

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

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

store_fact 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 CodeGraph — 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 store_fact

What does the store_fact tool do? +

Extract entities and relationships from natural language text using an LLM, then store them in the knowledge graph. Requires an LLM provider (CEREBRAS_API_KEY or OPENROUTER_API_KEY). Use this to remember information from conversations, documents, or any unstructured text. It is categorised as a Write tool in the CodeGraph MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on store_fact? +

Register the CodeGraph MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for store_fact: 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 CodeGraph. Nothing to install.

What risk level is store_fact? +

store_fact is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit store_fact? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the store_fact 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 store_fact completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for store_fact. 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 store_fact? +

store_fact is provided by the CodeGraph MCP server (phoenixrr2113/codebase-graph). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every CodeGraph tool call.

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