AI agents call forage to retrieve information from Celiums Memory without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
'forage' is a hybrid (full-text + semantic) search tool that queries an existing knowledge base and returns results without modifying, creating, deleting, or executing any external operations. This is a Read operation.
From the tool's definition Tool performs 'search over the knowledge/skills' and 'returns ranked results with titles, descriptions, and categories.' It is a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access forage gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Celiums Memory, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for forage:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"forage": {}
}
}forage is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Hybrid (full-text + semantic) search over the knowledge/skills the operator has loaded. Returns ranked results with titles, descriptions, and categories. Use when the user needs technical guidance, best practices, or domain expertise. Bring your own knowledge — the engine does not ship a bundled corpus. Example queries:. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Celiums Memory MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Celiums Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for forage: 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 Celiums Memory. Nothing to install.
forage 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 forage 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 forage. 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.
forage is provided by the Celiums Memory MCP server (terrizoaguimor/celiums-memory). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Celiums Memory, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
