recall_bugfix

Find past bug fixes with similar symptoms. Returns structured fix patterns (symptom/root_cause/fix) ranked by semantic similarity. Call this FIRST when debugging — a past fix may apply.

What recall_bugfix does on GraphHub

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

Why recall_bugfix needs a policy

This is a pure read operation that searches and retrieves existing bug fix information to inform debugging decisions. It has no side effects, does not execute code, does not modify data, and does not affect external systems. The blast radius of misuse is minimal — an agent might receive irrelevant or misleading historical fixes, but cannot damage or alter the codebase or system state.

From the tool's definition Tool 'recall_bugfix' returns structured data about past bug fixes ranked by semantic similarity. No modification, deletion, or execution occurs — it only retrieves and queries historical fix patterns from the knowledge graph.

How to control recall_bugfix

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GraphHub, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for recall_bugfix:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "recall_bugfix": {}
  }
}

recall_bugfix is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register GraphHub — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

How do I block recall_bugfix completely? +

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

recall_bugfix is provided by the GraphHub MCP server (slnquangtran/graph-hub). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every GraphHub tool call.
