WHAT IT DOES

What search_shortcuts does on AirMCP

AI agents call search_shortcuts 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.

RISK

Why search_shortcuts is rated Low

This tool retrieves or queries Siri Shortcuts based on search criteria without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any shortcuts. It has no side effects beyond returning search results. The blast radius is minimal—an AI agent could only access information about available shortcuts, not execute them or alter system state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'search_shortcuts' and description 'Search Siri Shortcuts by name keyword' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'search' and the mention of searching 'by name keyword' are characteristic of read-only operations.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs search_shortcuts safely

search_shortcuts Allowed

search_shortcuts is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "search_shortcuts": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect AirMCP, apply this rule, and every search_shortcuts call is checked against it from then on.
