find_mcp_servers

List sites in the index that expose a live MCP server, ranked by agentic readiness. Use this when your agent needs to discover callable MCP endpoints for a domain ('payments', 'jobs', 'search') or overall. Pairs naturally with verify_mcp for a probe-before-use workflow.

Part of the Not Human Search server.

find_mcp_servers is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call find_mcp_servers to retrieve information from Not Human Search without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though find_mcp_servers only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so find_mcp_servers only ever does what you allow.

What does the find_mcp_servers tool do? +

List sites in the index that expose a live MCP server, ranked by agentic readiness. Use this when your agent needs to discover callable MCP endpoints for a domain ('payments', 'jobs', 'search') or overall. Pairs naturally with verify_mcp for a probe-before-use workflow.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Not Human Search MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on find_mcp_servers? +

Register the Not Human Search MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for find_mcp_servers: 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 Not Human Search. Nothing to install.

What risk level is find_mcp_servers? +

find_mcp_servers is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit find_mcp_servers? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the find_mcp_servers rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block find_mcp_servers completely? +

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

What MCP server provides find_mcp_servers? +

find_mcp_servers is provided by the Not Human Search MCP server (https://nothumansearch.ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Not Human Search tool call.
