What memory_search does on MCP Memory System

AI agents call memory_search to retrieve information from MCP Memory System without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why memory_search needs a policy

This tool searches and retrieves stored memory records without creating, modifying, or deleting data. The restriction to 'canonical final' records further constrains it to read-only access of already-finalized data. No side effects, state changes, or external operations are indicated.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'memory_search' indicates a search/retrieval operation. Description states 'メモリ検索' (memory search), which is a query operation limited to 'canonical final' records only.
