Search for ontology terms by label or synonym.
AI agents call search_terms to retrieve information from Mcp Ubergraph Query without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries data from the Ubergraph biomedical ontology without side effects. It searches for terms but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any code. The search operation is read-only and returns results without affecting the underlying ontology or triggering external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool performs search operation on ontology terms by label or synonym; no modification, deletion, or execution of external operations described.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Search for ontology terms by label or synonym. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Ubergraph Query MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Ubergraph Query MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_terms: 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 Mcp Ubergraph Query. Nothing to install.
search_terms 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_terms 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_terms. 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_terms is provided by the Mcp Ubergraph Query MCP server (twhetzel/mcp-ubergraph-query). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
