## Why search_treaties_advanced is rated Low

The tool name pattern ('search_*') and the sibling tools context (bill_stages, get_amendment_by_id, browse_locations—all read-only queries) indicate this tool retrieves or queries treaty data from Parliament records without side effects. The empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the naming convention and server purpose are strong indicators of a Read classification.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'search_treaties_advanced' indicates a search operation; the server context describes querying UK Parliament data including bills, votes, committees, and debates—all read-only operations."

## Use case

AI agents call search_treaties_advanced to retrieve information from UK Parliament 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 UK Parliament MCP Server:

```json
