## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "search_files",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why search_files is rated Low

File search is a retrieval operation with no side effects. It queries existing data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could discover sensitive file paths but cannot access, modify, or delete them through this tool alone. This is clearly a Read category tool.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'search_files' with description 'Search files with keyword'. The verb 'search' and lack of any modification language indicate this is a read-only operation that queries the file system without altering data."

## Use case

AI agents call search_files to retrieve information from 1Panel 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 1Panel MCP Server:

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