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

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

## Why search_templates is rated Low

This is a straightforward search/query operation that retrieves and filters template information without side effects. Users cannot modify, delete, or execute templates through this tool—only view matching results. The low severity reflects that misuse would only expose template metadata already stored in the system, with no ability to alter data or trigger external actions.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool performs search functionality with read-only access to template metadata (names and descriptions). Description explicitly states it searches 'by keywords in template NAMES and DESCRIPTIONS only' with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities."

## Use case

AI agents call search_templates to retrieve information from Obsidian Elite RAG 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 Obsidian Elite RAG MCP Server:

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