How to control search ↓

AI agents call search to retrieve information from BNB Chain MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves information about tokens, pools, and decentralized exchanges across blockchain networks. It performs read-only lookups without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing code. The search functionality is purely informational and has no blast radius if misused by an agent—it cannot cause irreversible changes, financial transactions, or code execution.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'search' and description states it 'Search across ALL networks for tokens, pools, and DEXes by name, symbol, or address.' This is a query/retrieval operation with no side effects.

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 BNB Chain MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for search:

policy.json
{
  "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.

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

What does the search tool do? +

Search across ALL networks for tokens, pools, and DEXes by name, symbol, or address. Good starting point when you don\. It is categorised as a Read tool in the BNB Chain MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on search? +

Register the BNB Chain 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 BNB Chain MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is search? +

search is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit search? +

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.

How do I block search completely? +

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.

What MCP server provides search? +

search is provided by the BNB Chain MCP server (nirholas/bnbchain-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every BNB Chain MCP tool call.
