What knowledge does on Asset Aware

AI agents call knowledge to retrieve information from Asset Aware without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why knowledge needs a policy

This tool appears to be a query interface for accessing and retrieving information from a knowledge graph. Knowledge graphs are typically read-only for retrieval purposes. The description lacks explicit mutation language, and the context (medical research asset analysis) suggests information retrieval is the primary use case.

From the tool's definition 'Consolidated knowledge-graph entrypoint' - the word 'entrypoint' indicates query/retrieval of knowledge graph data rather than modification or execution. No verbs like create, delete, execute, or modify are present.

Questions about knowledge

What does the knowledge tool do? +

Consolidated knowledge-graph entrypoint. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Asset Aware MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on knowledge? +

Register the Asset Aware MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for knowledge: 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 Asset Aware. Nothing to install.

What risk level is knowledge? +

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

Can I rate-limit knowledge? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the knowledge 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 knowledge completely? +

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

knowledge is provided by the Asset Aware MCP server (u9401066/asset-aware-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
