search_asset_files
AI agents call search_asset_files to retrieve information from Firebase DAM MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries files from Firebase Storage without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is consistent with the server's stated read-only purpose for Digital Asset Management.
From the tool's definition Server description states 'read-only access' and 'search storage files using flexible filters'. Tool name 'search_asset_files' indicates a search/query operation. Tool description is empty, which slightly reduces confidence.
