## Why team_manager_state is rated Low

This is a retrieval-only operation. It queries and returns data about the current state of a governed room without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. The 'Read' category is appropriate, and severity is low because viewing state information poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states 'Read the current governed room state' — a query operation with no side effects. The tool retrieves state information (agents, evidence, budget, checkpoints, decision) without modifying or executing anything."

## Use case

AI agents call team_manager_state to retrieve information from Team Manager MCP 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 Team Manager MCP:

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