recall_memory

Search organizational memory for prior decisions, artifacts, project context, and team knowledge. Also known as: search memory, recall decisions, find context, retrieve artifacts, what did we decide.

How to control recall_memory ↓

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

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
limit number Maximum number of results to return
query string Search query for organizational memory
scope string Optional scope filter for the memory search
_context object Client context for conversation tracking (strongly recommended for cross-client continuity)

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Low Risk

Even though recall_memory only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access recall_memory gives an agent:

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

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

recall_memory 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 OrgX — 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.

What does the recall_memory tool do? +

Search organizational memory for prior decisions, artifacts, project context, and team knowledge. Also known as: search memory, recall decisions, find context, retrieve artifacts, what did we decide. It is categorised as a Read tool in the OrgX MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

What parameters does recall_memory accept? +

recall_memory accepts 4 parameters: limit, query, scope, _context. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on recall_memory? +

Register the OrgX MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for recall_memory: 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 OrgX. Nothing to install.

What risk level is recall_memory? +

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

Can I rate-limit recall_memory? +

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

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

recall_memory is provided by the OrgX MCP server (useorgx/orgx-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every OrgX tool call.
