## Why search_torrents is rated Low

This tool retrieves torrent search results from a private tracker API with no side effects on the tracker itself. However, the medium severity reflects that searches on private torrent trackers could facilitate unauthorized copyright infringement or access to restricted content, creating reputational and legal risk even though the tool itself is read-only.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'search_torrents' indicates a query/search operation. Server description confirms it 'enables AI assistants to interact with M-Team private torrent tracker API for searching resources.' The tool description is empty, providing no additional detail."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches M-Team MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "search_torrents": {}
  }
}
```
