## Why google_sheets_search_spreadsheets is rated Low

This tool only queries and retrieves metadata about existing spreadsheets without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has minimal blast radius—an agent can only discover what spreadsheets exist, which is informational only. The worst case is unauthorized enumeration of another user's sheets, but no data is accessed or altered.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool performs a search operation to retrieve Google Sheets spreadsheets by name and owner email. The verb 'search' combined with the description 'Search for Google Sheets spreadsheets' indicates data retrieval with no modification or deletion."

## Use case

AI agents call google_sheets_search_spreadsheets to retrieve information from Sage MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Sage MCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "google_sheets_search_spreadsheets": {}
  }
}
```
