Search for Project/VC/People brief information according to keywords.
AI agents call search to retrieve information from RootData MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This is a search/query function that retrieves brief information about cryptocurrency projects, VCs, and people. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, delete anything, or move funds. It is a straightforward Read operation with minimal risk.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Search for Project/VC/People brief information according to keywords' — a retrieval operation that queries existing data without modification or execution of external commands.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access search gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and RootData MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for search:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"search": {}
}
}search is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Search for Project/VC/People brief information according to keywords. It is categorised as a Read tool in the RootData MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the RootData MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches RootData MCP Server. Nothing to install.
search is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the search rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for search. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
search is provided by the RootData MCP Server MCP server (jincai/rootdata-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from RootData MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
