THE RISK

Why keynote.search needs a policy

This tool retrieves or queries data (files matching search criteria) without any side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, execute, or move money. The operation is purely informational and non-destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'keynote.search' and description states 'Search for Keynote presentation files by name.' The verb 'search' and the read-only nature of file discovery with no modification capability.

POLICY

How to control keynote.search

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Orchard, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for keynote.search:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "keynote.search": {}
  }
}

keynote.search is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Orchard — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
