Return a small batch of the stalest memories for a quick keep / trim / forget review — the opt-in curation game. Read-only: it only suggests. Act on items with mindmap_promote (keep), mindmap_update (trim), or mindmap_forget. Args: limit (number, default 5). Returns: stalest cold memories.
AI agents call mindmap_tidy to retrieve information from Mindmap without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
mindmap_tidy retrieves a batch of old memories for review purposes. It performs no write, delete, or execute operations—those are delegated to separate tools (mindmap_promote, mindmap_update, mindmap_forget). The tool is purely informational/suggestive, making it a standard Read operation with minimal risk.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Read-only: it only suggests' and 'Returns: stalest cold memories.' The tool queries and retrieves data without modifying or deleting anything.

Return a small batch of the stalest memories for a quick keep / trim / forget review — the opt-in curation game. Read-only: it only suggests. Act on items with mindmap_promote (keep), mindmap_update (trim), or mindmap_forget. Args: limit (number, default 5). Returns: stalest cold memories. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mindmap MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mindmap MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mindmap_tidy: 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 Mindmap. Nothing to install.
mindmap_tidy 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 mindmap_tidy 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 mindmap_tidy. 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.
mindmap_tidy is provided by the Mindmap MCP server (@ravi-labs/mindmap-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
