Get statistics about stored memories (total count, tags, etc.)
AI agents call get_memory_stats to retrieve information from AI Memory MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves aggregate statistics about stored memories such as counts and tags. It has no side effects and does not modify any data. Pure read operation with minimal blast radius if misused.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get statistics about stored memories (total count, tags, etc.). It is categorised as a Read tool in the AI Memory MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the AI Memory MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_memory_stats: 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 AI Memory MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_memory_stats 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_memory_stats 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_memory_stats. 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_memory_stats is provided by the AI Memory MCP Server MCP server (scofieldkoh/mcp_server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
