Search for keywords/patterns in document using regex
AI agents call search_content to retrieve information from LODA MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves and searches document content based on regex patterns. It does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or commit financial transactions. It is a straightforward read operation with no capability to alter data or trigger external operations. Low severity because search operations have minimal blast radius even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Search for keywords/patterns in document using regex' which performs search operations without modification or deletion.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Search for keywords/patterns in document using regex. It is categorised as a Read tool in the LODA MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the LODA MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_content: 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 LODA MCP Server. Nothing to install.
search_content 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_content 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_content. 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_content is provided by the LODA MCP Server MCP server (patrickkarle/loda-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
