AI agents call recall to retrieve information from Mcp Sefaria without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool only reads/retrieves previously stored data without any side effects. It queries stored key-value pairs scoped to the user's identifier. No writes, executions, or deletions occur. Low severity because it only exposes data the agent itself previously stored.
From the tool's definition Retrieve a value previously saved via remember, or list all saved keys (omit the key argument)
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Retrieve a value previously saved via remember, or list all saved keys (omit the key argument). Use to look up context the agent stored earlier — the user's target ticker, an address, prior research notes — without re-deriving it from scratch. Scoped to your identifier (anonymous IP, BYO key hash, or account ID). Pair with remember to save, forget to delete. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Sefaria MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
recall accepts 1 parameter: key. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Mcp Sefaria MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for recall: 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 Mcp Sefaria. Nothing to install.
recall 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 recall 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 recall. 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.
recall is provided by the Mcp Sefaria MCP server (pipeworx-io/mcp-sefaria). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
