What research does on Gigaxity Deep Research

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

Why research needs a policy

This tool appears designed to perform research operations—querying, searching, and synthesizing information from multiple sources. No modification, deletion, execution of arbitrary code, or financial operations are implied. The primary capability is retrieving and potentially synthesizing publicly available information, which is a read operation with minimal blast radius if misused.

From the tool's definition Tool named 'research' is part of a 'deep research MCP server that provides multi-source web search and synthesis with citations.' Sibling tools include 'search', 'scrape_as_markdown', 'ask', 'discover', 'exa_answer', and 'synthesize'—all of which are…

How to control research

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Gigaxity Deep Research, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for research:

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

research 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 Gigaxity Deep Research — 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.

Questions about research

What does the research tool do? +

research. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Gigaxity Deep Research MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on research? +

Register the Gigaxity Deep Research MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for research: 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 Gigaxity Deep Research. Nothing to install.

What risk level is research? +

research is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit research? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the research 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.

How do I block research completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for research. 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.

What MCP server provides research? +

research is provided by the Gigaxity Deep Research MCP server (yoloshii/gigaxity-deep-research). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Gigaxity Deep Research tool call.

Start from Gigaxity Deep Research, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
