# search_in_sources Searches for a string or regex pattern in all loaded JavaScript sources. Returns matching lines with script ID, URL, and line number. Use get_script_source with startLine/endLine to view full context around matches. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `search_in_sources`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/search-in-sources ## Facts - Tool: `search_in_sources` - Server: Js Reverse (`1600822305/js-reverse-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/1600822305/js-reverse-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "search_in_sources", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why search_in_sources is rated Low This is a passive search operation that queries and retrieves data about loaded JavaScript sources. It has no side effects, does not execute code, create, modify, or delete anything. While it could be used as part of reverse engineering, the tool itself performs only read operations. From the tool's own definition: "The tool 'searches for a string or regex pattern in all loaded JavaScript sources' and 'returns matching lines with script ID, URL, and line number.' The description explicitly states it retrieves information without modifying or executing anything." ## Use case AI agents call search_in_sources to retrieve information from Js Reverse 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 Js Reverse: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "search_in_sources": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Js Reverse (92) - `clear_browser_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/clear-browser-cache.md - `clear_cookies` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/clear-cookies.md - `clear_network_conditions` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/clear-network-conditions.md - `delete_cookie` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/delete-cookie.md - `delete_token` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/delete-token.md - `remove_breakpoint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/remove-breakpoint.md - `remove_dom_breakpoint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/remove-dom-breakpoint.md - `remove_network_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/remove-network-rule.md - `remove_xhr_breakpoint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/remove-xhr-breakpoint.md - `add_network_rule` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/add-network-rule.md - `api_request` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/api-request.md - `batch_replay` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/batch-replay.md - `break_on_attribute_modified` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/break-on-attribute-modified.md - `break_on_node_removed` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/break-on-node-removed.md - `break_on_subtree_modified` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/break-on-subtree-modified.md - `break_on_xhr` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/break-on-xhr.md - `encode_protobuf` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/encode-protobuf.md - `evaluate_on_callframe` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/evaluate-on-callframe.md - `evaluate_script` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/evaluate-script.md - `hook_crypto_functions` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/hook-crypto-functions.md - `hook_function` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/hook-function.md - `monitor_events` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/monitor-events.md - `monitor_eventsource` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/monitor-eventsource.md - `monitor_form_submit` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/monitor-form-submit.md - `monitor_input_changes` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/monitor-input-changes.md - `navigate_page` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/navigate-page.md - `new_page` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/new-page.md - `pause` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/pause.md - `replay_request` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/replay-request.md - `resume` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp/resume.md - …and 62 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/1600822305-js-reverse-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
