What traffic_search does on Android Proxy MCP

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

Why traffic_search needs a policy

This is fundamentally a search operation that retrieves and queries network traffic data. It does not modify, delete, or execute anything. However, severity is high because the data it can access (HTTP/HTTPS traffic including request/response bodies and headers) may contain sensitive information like credentials, authentication tokens, personal data, or API keys, creating significant risk if an AI agent misuses it…

From the tool's definition Tool description states '搜索流量内容' (search traffic content) and 'returns matching fragments rather than complete content' — a search/query operation with no side effects. The tool searches HTTP/HTTPS traffic data captured from Android devices.
