## Why delimit_memory_search is rated Low

Despite the empty description reducing confidence slightly, the tool name strongly suggests a read-only search operation that retrieves memory information without side effects. The 'search' verb is consistently associated with the Read category. This tool would allow querying stored memory within the workspace but not modifying it, making it low-severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'delimit_memory_search' indicates a search operation on memory data. The '_search' suffix is typical of retrieval/query tools that do not modify state."

## Use case

AI agents call delimit_memory_search to retrieve information from Delimit 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 Delimit:

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