neural_status
Get neural system status Use when nothing native trains on your workflow — Claude Code has no learning loop. Use to train SONA/MoE/EWC patterns from successful task outcomes; query via neural_predict before spawning agents. Off-path for one-shot work.

What neural_status does on Ruflo
AI agents call neural_status to retrieve information from Ruflo without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why neural_status is rated Low
This is a query/status retrieval operation that reads the state of a neural system. It gathers information about training patterns (SONA/MoE/EWC) and system status to inform decision-making about agent spawning, but does not execute commands, modify state, delete data, or move financial resources. The phrase 'query via neural_predict' reinforces its role as a read operation for system intelligence gathering.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'neural_status' combined with description 'Get neural system status' and 'query via neural_predict' indicates this retrieves status information about the neural system without modifying it.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs neural_status safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ruflo, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For neural_status, this is the rule to start with:
neural_status is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ruflo, apply this rule, and every neural_status call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about neural_status
Get neural system status Use when nothing native trains on your workflow — Claude Code has no learning loop. Use to train SONA/MoE/EWC patterns from successful task outcomes; query via neural_predict before spawning agents. Off-path for one-shot work. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ruflo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Ruflo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for neural_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 Ruflo. Nothing to install.
neural_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 neural_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 neural_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.
neural_status is provided by the Ruflo MCP server (ruvnet/ruflo). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
