## Why search_podcast_episodes is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only search query across podcast metadata. It retrieves information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve podcast information that is already accessible to the user. No side effects, no data modification, no code execution.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate a search operation ('Search across all podcast episodes') with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities. Retrieves podcast data by name or description query."

## Use case

AI agents call search_podcast_episodes to retrieve information from AirMCP 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 AirMCP:

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