List all research projects for a user, with counts of findings and open gaps. Use to discover what investigations are already in progress.
AI agents call research_project_list 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.
This tool retrieves and enumerates existing research projects and their metadata (findings counts, open gaps) scoped to a user. It performs no modifications, deletions, or external operations—purely a read operation to surface existing data. The blast radius of misuse is limited to information disclosure of the user's research context.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'research_project_list' and description 'List all research projects for a user' indicates a retrieval operation. The verb 'List' and action 'discover what investigations are already in progress' confirm this is a query operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access research_project_list 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 research_project_list:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"research_project_list": {}
}
}research_project_list is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all research projects for a user, with counts of findings and open gaps. Use to discover what investigations are already in progress. 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 research_project_list: 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.
research_project_list 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 research_project_list 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 research_project_list. 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.
research_project_list 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.
