What vision.search.exhaustion does on Visionmcp
AI agents use vision.search.exhaustion to create or update resources in Visionmcp, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Visionmcp environment.
Why vision.search.exhaustion is rated Medium
'Seal' implies creating or finalizing a record (a SearchExhaustionReceipt), which is a write/commit operation that affects downstream generation gates. It does not appear to delete data or execute arbitrary code, but it does create/finalize a gating artifact that could block or unblock generation pipelines. Confidence is moderate because the description is terse and the exact reversibility is unclear.

The rule that runs vision.search.exhaustion safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Visionmcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For vision.search.exhaustion, this is the rule to start with:
vision.search.exhaustion stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Visionmcp, apply this rule, and every vision.search.exhaustion call is checked against it from then on.
