## Why discord_search_tools is rated Low

This tool reads and retrieves metadata about available Discord tools without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a discovery/search utility that returns information only. The minimal blast radius (user gets a list of available tools) and lack of any state-changing capability confirms low severity classification.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool performs a search/query operation to retrieve Discord tool information by name, alias, or description. The verb 'search' combined with 'by name/alias/description' indicates information retrieval with no side effects or modifications."

## Use case

AI agents call discord_search_tools to retrieve information from Discord 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 Discord MCP Server:

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