Why kg_session_warmup needs a policy

The tool reads and retrieves existing project context (recent work, active questions, blockers) to warm up a session. It does not create, modify, delete, execute, or move money — it is purely a data retrieval operation to restore continuity between sessions.

How to control kg_session_warmup

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Personal Kg, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for kg_session_warmup:

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

kg_session_warmup 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 Personal Kg — 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.
