What search does on Gigaxity Deep Research

AI agents call search 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 search needs a policy

The tool retrieves data from web sources as part of a research synthesis workflow. The server's purpose is 'multi-source web search and synthesis with citations,' and 'search' is a foundational read operation in this context. No modification, deletion, code execution, or financial impact is implied.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'search' in a deep research MCP server context; sibling tools include 'research', 'scrape_as_markdown', 'synthesize', 'exa_answer' which are all data retrieval operations.

How to control search

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 search:

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

search 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 search

What does the search tool do? +

search. 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 search? +

Register the Gigaxity Deep Research MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search: 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 search? +

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

Can I rate-limit search? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the search 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 search completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for search. 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 search? +

search 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.
