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

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

## Why search_tool is rated Low

The search_tool performs a read-only query operation that retrieves and returns matching document identifiers. There are no side effects, data modifications, destructive actions, or financial implications. The only information exposed is the ability to discover documents matching search criteria, which is a standard read operation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Search for documents matching the query. Returns document IDs.' This is a retrieval operation with no modification, deletion, or execution of arbitrary code."

## Use case

AI agents call search_tool to retrieve information from Arifos 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 Arifos:

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