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

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

## Why get_alerts is rated Low

This tool retrieves the status of pre-configured alerts by querying live market data. It has no side effects—it does not modify alert configurations, execute trades, transfer funds, or trigger any external actions beyond returning alert status information. Despite the financial domain context, the tool itself is purely informational and read-only, making it a Read category risk with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_alerts' and description 'Check which of your configured alerts are currently triggered' indicates data retrieval only."

## Use case

AI agents call get_alerts to retrieve information from Fathom Fyi 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 Fathom Fyi:

```json
{
  "version": "1",

  "tools": {
    "get_alerts": {}
  }
}
```
