Get the current user profile (static facts + dynamic context). Rebuild if stale.

How to control profile ↓

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

Low Risk

This tool retrieves user profile information including static facts and dynamic context. The action is purely read-oriented with no side effects—it queries and returns data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The stale rebuild is an internal caching mechanism that does not constitute a write operation to user data itself.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'profile' and description 'Get the current user profile' indicates retrieval of existing data. 'Rebuild if stale' refers to cache refresh, not modification of underlying data.

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

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

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

profile 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 ClawMem — 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 profile tool do? +

Get the current user profile (static facts + dynamic context). Rebuild if stale. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ClawMem MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on profile? +

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

What risk level is profile? +

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

Can I rate-limit profile? +

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

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

profile is provided by the ClawMem MCP server (yoloshii/clawmem). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every ClawMem tool call.
