synthesize

Apply a knowledge module to solve a specific task. Loads the module content and uses it as context for the AI to generate a concrete, actionable solution. Combines stored knowledge with AI reasoning.

What synthesize does on Celiums Memory

AI agents call synthesize 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.

Low Risk

Why synthesize needs a policy

The tool reads/loads a stored knowledge module and uses it as context to generate output. There is no indication it writes, modifies, deletes, or executes external operations — it retrieves knowledge and applies AI reasoning to produce a solution. Classified as Read with medium-low severity since it only queries existing modules.

From the tool's definition 'Loads the module content and uses it as context for the AI to generate a concrete, actionable solution. Combines stored knowledge with AI reasoning.'

How to control synthesize

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 synthesize:

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

synthesize 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 Celiums Memory — 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.

Questions about synthesize

What does the synthesize tool do? +

Apply a knowledge module to solve a specific task. Loads the module content and uses it as context for the AI to generate a concrete, actionable solution. Combines stored knowledge with AI reasoning. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Celiums Memory MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on synthesize? +

Register the Celiums Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for synthesize: 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.

What risk level is synthesize? +

synthesize is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit synthesize? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the synthesize 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.

How do I block synthesize completely? +

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

synthesize 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.

Enforce policy on every Celiums Memory tool call.

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.
