## Why search-audits is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves audit log information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a read-only operation that has no side effects on the system or data. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this tool could only over-query or access audit logs, not cause irreversible harm or execute arbitrary operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'search-audits' and description 'Search Descope project audit logs' indicate retrieval of audit log data with no modification or deletion of records."

## Use case

AI agents call search-audits to retrieve information from Descope 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 Descope MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "search-audits": {}
  }
}
```
