What search does on Meeting Chief Lite

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

Why search needs a policy

This tool only reads and retrieves data from the local SQLite database of meeting transcripts. It performs searches (semantic, keyword, and context-based) and returns results without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could retrieve sensitive meeting information, but cannot alter or delete it. This is a straightforward Read category tool.

From the tool's definition The tool 'search' retrieves meeting transcript data through 'semantic search (AI similarity), keyword search (exact match), and context search' and 'returns matching chunks with source citations.' These are query operations with no side effects.

How do I enforce a policy on search? +
