What search_inventory does on CerebroChain MCP Server

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

Why search_inventory needs a policy

search_inventory queries and retrieves inventory data without side effects. It returns structured information (SKU, name, quantity, location, category) but does not create, modify, delete, or execute external operations. This is a classic Read operation. The API key requirement is a standard authentication control and does not elevate the risk category.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Search inventory items with filters. Returns SKU, name, quantity, location, category.' This is a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data.
