## Why get_team_info is rated Low

This tool performs a data retrieval operation with no side effects. It queries and returns existing CTF team information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The action is read-only and the blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve publicly available team statistics.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool retrieves 'detailed information about a specific CTF team' with no modification, deletion, or execution capability. Aligns with sibling tools (get_ctf_calendar, get_event_details, get_top_teams) which are all retrieval-only operations."

## Use case

AI agents call get_team_info to retrieve information from CTFtime MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches CTFtime MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_team_info": {}
  }
}
```
