# email_search Search emails in a connected mailbox. Requires an active email integration. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `email_search`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/email-search ## Facts - Tool: `email_search` - Server: FlowDot MCP Server (`flowdot-llc/mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/flowdot-llc/mcp-server - 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": "email_search", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why email_search is rated Low This tool retrieves and queries email data without creating, modifying, or deleting messages. However, the severity is medium rather than low because email often contains sensitive personal and business information (credentials, financial details, PII), and unauthorized search access could expose significant data. The tool requires an active email integration, implying it operates on user email accounts. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'email_search' and description 'Search emails in a connected mailbox' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data." ## Use case AI agents call email_search to retrieve information from FlowDot 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 FlowDot MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "email_search": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on FlowDot MCP Server (206) - `browser_act` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-act.md - `cancel_execution` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/cancel-execution.md - `delete_agent_character` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-agent-character.md - `delete_app` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-app.md - `delete_app_file` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-app-file.md - `delete_connection` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-connection.md - `delete_custom_node` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-custom-node.md - `delete_goal` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-goal.md - `delete_goal_milestone` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-goal-milestone.md - `delete_goal_task` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-goal-task.md - `delete_image` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-image.md - `delete_input_preset` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-input-preset.md - `delete_knowledge_category` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-knowledge-category.md - `delete_knowledge_document` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-knowledge-document.md - `delete_node` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-node.md - `delete_recipe` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-recipe.md - `delete_recipe_step` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-recipe-step.md - `delete_recipe_store` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-recipe-store.md - `delete_workflow` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/delete-workflow.md - `email_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/email-delete.md - `mcp__flowdot__delete_agent_toolkit` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/mcp--flowdot--delete-agent-toolkit.md - `mcp__flowdot__delete_toolkit_tool` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/mcp--flowdot--delete-toolkit-tool.md - `mcp__flowdot__uninstall_toolkit` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/mcp--flowdot--uninstall-toolkit.md - `panic_clear` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/panic-clear.md - `revoke_kb_access` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/revoke-kb-access.md - `unlink_property_kb_source` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/unlink-property-kb-source.md - `browser_launch` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-launch.md - `browser_navigate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-navigate.md - `browser_sequence` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-sequence.md - `browser_wait_for` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server/browser-wait-for.md - …and 176 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/flowdot-llc-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
