## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why qt_find_widget is rated Low

Based on the server's inspection and debugging focus and the read-only nature of sibling tools, qt_find_widget most likely retrieves widget information without modifying state. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the contextual evidence strongly suggests a Read category tool. No code execution, data modification, or destructive operations are implied.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'qt_find_widget' suggests querying/locating UI widgets. Description is empty, but sibling tools like 'qt_get_text', 'qt_list_windows', and 'qt_layout_check' are all inspection/read operations, and the server's stated purpose is 'inspecting,…"

## Use case

AI agents call qt_find_widget to retrieve information from Qt 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 Qt:

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