What forget does on Agent Memory Bridge

AI agents call forget to permanently remove resources in Agent Memory Bridge — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why forget needs a policy

This tool irreversibly deletes stored memory entries from the agent's knowledge base. While the blast radius is limited to the agent's own memory (not external systems), deletion of learned domain knowledge, gotchas, and decisions cannot be undone and could compromise the agent's future decision-making if misused. This fits the Destructive category as it performs an operation that cannot be reversed.

From the tool's definition 'Delete one stored entry by id' - the tool explicitly performs deletion of stored data entries, which is an irreversible operation.

Register the Agent Memory Bridge MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for forget: 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 Agent Memory Bridge. Nothing to install.

What risk level is forget? +

Can I rate-limit forget? +

How do I block forget completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for forget. 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.
