Get comprehensive system status including intelligence data, performance metrics, and health indicators
AI agents call get_system_status 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 system and performance information without modifying state, executing external code, deleting data, or triggering financial operations. It is purely informational, making it a Read category tool with low severity since misuse would only expose internal metrics rather than cause damage.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_system_status' and description 'Get comprehensive system status including intelligence data, performance metrics, and health indicators' indicate a retrieval/query operation with no data modification or side effects.

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_system_status:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_system_status": {}
}
} get_system_status is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get comprehensive system status including intelligence data, performance metrics, and health indicators. 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_system_status: 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_system_status 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_system_status 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_system_status. 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_system_status 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.
