WHAT IT DOES

What remember_create_internal_memory does on Remember

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why remember_create_internal_memory needs a policy

This tool creates new memory records in a multi-tenant vector memory system. While creation is reversible (unlike deletion), it can accumulate state within the system and potentially create observational records about user interactions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'creates' an internal memory (ghost observation or agent note), which is a write operation that modifies the multi-tenant memory system by adding new data structures.

FAQ

Questions about remember_create_internal_memory

What does the remember_create_internal_memory tool do? +

Create an internal memory (ghost observation or agent note) based on the current session context. In ghost mode: creates a ghost memory tracking conversation observations, impressions, and insights. Automatically tagged with ghost source isolation tags. In agent mode: creates an agent memory for AI observations and notes. Automatically tagged with agent tags. Content type and tags are determined by the platform session context. This tool errors if no internal session context is present. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Remember MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on remember_create_internal_memory? +

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

What risk level is remember_create_internal_memory? +

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

Can I rate-limit remember_create_internal_memory? +

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

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

remember_create_internal_memory is provided by the Remember MCP server (@prmichaelsen/remember-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
