How to control google_flights ↓

AI agents call google_flights to retrieve information from Noapi Google Search without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

Google Flights is a flight search and comparison service that retrieves and displays flight information, prices, and availability. This tool almost certainly retrieves flight data without modifying records or executing arbitrary operations. No write, delete, execution, or financial transaction capabilities are evident from the tool name or server's stated functionality.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'google_flights' combined with server context indicating data retrieval from Google services. Server description emphasizes 'access to Google search, live feeds, YouTube transcriptions' and sibling tools like 'google_books', 'google_finance',…

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access google_flights gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Noapi Google Search, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for google_flights:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "google_flights": {}
  }
}

google_flights is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Noapi Google Search — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
