AI agents call store_search to retrieve information from PlayCanvas Editor MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a search operation, which is fundamentally a read-only action. It retrieves or queries assets from a store without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could at worst perform exhaustive searches or return unwanted search results, but cannot damage data or cause external operations. Classified as Read with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'store_search' and description 'Search store assets' indicate a query operation that retrieves data from a store without modification or side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and PlayCanvas Editor MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for store_search:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"store_search": {}
}
} store_search is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
