## Facts

- Tool: `vision.search.web`
- Server: Visionmcp (`joshuahickscorp/visionmcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/visionmcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/joshuahickscorp/visionmcp
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "vision.search.web",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why vision.search.web is rated Low

Web search tools are fundamentally retrieval operations with no side effects on the search target. While results are untrusted data requiring validation, the tool itself only fetches and registers metadata—no write, execution, deletion, or financial operations are performed.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'search' and description states 'Register governed web-search metadata'; this retrieves or queries data from the web without modifying anything."

## Use case

AI agents call vision.search.web to retrieve information from Visionmcp 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 Visionmcp:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "vision.search.web": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
