Get detailed metrics about the intelligence database and learning state
AI agents call get_intelligence_metrics to retrieve information from In Memoria without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries metrics from an intelligence database. It has no side effects, does not modify data, does not execute operations, and does not perform destructive actions. It falls squarely into the Read category as a data retrieval operation. The low severity reflects minimal risk — exposing metrics and learning state data poses no immediate threat to system integrity or operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'get_' prefix and description states 'Get detailed metrics about the intelligence database and learning state' — purely retrieval of metrics and status information with no modification, deletion, or execution capability.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_intelligence_metrics gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and In Memoria, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_intelligence_metrics:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_intelligence_metrics": {}
}
}get_intelligence_metrics is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get detailed metrics about the intelligence database and learning state. It is categorised as a Read tool in the In Memoria MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the In Memoria MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_intelligence_metrics: 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 In Memoria. Nothing to install.
get_intelligence_metrics 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 get_intelligence_metrics 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 get_intelligence_metrics. 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.
get_intelligence_metrics is provided by the In Memoria MCP server (pi22by7/in-memoria). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
