WHAT IT DOES

What notion_search does on ScopeGate

AI agents call notion_search to retrieve information from ScopeGate without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why notion_search is rated Low

This is a search/query operation that retrieves information from Notion. It has no side effects, does not modify data, and does not execute external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could discover sensitive information in Notion, but cannot alter it. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'notion_search' and description 'Search across all pages and databases in Notion' indicate a read-only operation that queries and retrieves data without modifying, deleting, or executing code.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs notion_search safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and ScopeGate, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For notion_search, this is the rule to start with:

notion_search Allowed

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

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "notion_search": {}
  }
}

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

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