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

Search OGrid documentation by keyword. Returns matching docs with title, description, and content excerpt. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ogrid MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
search_docs accepts 3 parameters: limit, query, framework. Required: query. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Ogrid MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_docs: 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 Ogrid. Nothing to install.
search_docs 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_docs 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_docs. 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_docs is provided by the Ogrid MCP server (@alaarab/ogrid-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
