# find_replace_text

Find text across the document or in text frames, and optionally replace it (Edit > Find and Replace, Find Next), with Match Case and Whole Word. Without replace, matches are listed, and selectMatch selects one of them in the text, like Find Next. Formatting is kept; threaded frames are searched as one story

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "find_replace_text",
    "arguments": {}

## Why find_replace_text is rated Low

Even though find_replace_text 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.

## Use case

AI agents call find_replace_text to retrieve information from Adobe Mcp Illustrator 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 Adobe Mcp Illustrator:

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