HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/search-users-by-email-ids ## Facts - Tool: `search_users_by_email_ids` - Server: ComplianceCow MCP Server (`compliancecow/cow-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/ComplianceCow/cow-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "search_users_by_email_ids", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why search_users_by_email_ids is rated Low The tool performs a straightforward query/search operation to retrieve user information indexed by email. It has no side effects, does not execute code or external operations, and does not modify or delete data. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—returning user records in a compliance platform poses low risk compared to remediation actions or financial operations also available on this server. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name explicitly states 'search_users' and description is 'Search users by email ids.' This is a retrieval operation with no modification, creation, or deletion of data." ## Use case AI agents call search_users_by_email_ids to retrieve information from ComplianceCow 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**.
