Why remember_skill_choice needs a policy

This tool writes/stores a cached record of skill file choices and their outcomes into persistent session memory. It creates or modifies data (the skill routing cache) in a reversible way. No code is executed, no data is deleted, and no financial transactions occur. The blast radius is low — misuse could only pollute the skill routing cache with incorrect associations.

From the tool's definition Cache which .skill.md / SKILL.md file was used for a task... Record outcome to let recall_skill_choice rank successful choices higher.

How to control remember_skill_choice

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 remember_skill_choice:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "remember_skill_choice": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "remember_skill_choice_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

remember_skill_choice stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. 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.
