get_block
AI agents call get_block to retrieve information from Mnemosyne MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'get' prefix indicates a query/retrieval operation typical of Read category. Sibling tools include querying operations (check_document, context_bundle) and modification operations (create_folder, create_graph, delete), placing get_block in the read-only family.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_block' suggests retrieval of data blocks from the knowledge graph without modification. No description provided, so classification relies on naming convention and context of sibling operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
get_block. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mnemosyne MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mnemosyne MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_block: 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 Mnemosyne MCP. Nothing to install.
get_block 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_block 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_block. 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_block is provided by the Mnemosyne MCP server (sophia-labs/mnemosyne-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
