WHAT IT DOES

What hippo_compose_macro does on Verimem

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

RISK

Why hippo_compose_macro is rated Low

Even though hippo_compose_macro 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.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs hippo_compose_macro safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Verimem, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For hippo_compose_macro, this is the rule to start with:

hippo_compose_macro Allowed

hippo_compose_macro is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "hippo_compose_macro": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Verimem, apply this rule, and every hippo_compose_macro call is checked against it from then on.
