## Why search_fulltext is rated Low

The tool name and context (a local-first research companion with indexed PDF library) indicate this performs full-text search over indexed documents. This is a read-only operation with no side effects—it retrieves data without modifying, deleting, or executing code. Confidence is 0.85 rather than higher because the description is empty, leaving some ambiguity about implementation details.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'search_fulltext' indicates querying/searching indexed content. Tool description is empty, providing no direct evidence of side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call search_fulltext to retrieve information from Metis Public Health 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 Metis Public Health:

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