Description

I faced an issue on the circle app which is the user can see all other users and add them as member, need to control it , so user can see only members that with him in same groups or hide some members from him to can’t see them in search or add them.

Need to control member like control group by allow_adding_any_group_members option.

Research direction

Start by tracing the circle member search and add flows, then compare their permission handling with the existing allow_adding_any_group_members option. Done means non-admin users can only see or add permitted members, while administrators retain current behavior; the issue does not name specific files or tests.
