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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get_temporal_context",
    "arguments": {}

## Why get_temporal_context is rated Low

This tool queries and returns temporal/historical blockchain data about Bitcoin halving cycles. It provides context and guidance but does not execute trades, move funds, modify positions, run arbitrary code, or delete data. The risk is purely informational—misuse could lead to poor trading decisions, but the tool itself performs only read operations on financial data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get_' prefix and description states it retrieves historical data (days since halving, cycle phase, historical analogs). No modification, deletion, or execution of external systems occurs. Returns informational financial intelligence only."

## Use case

AI agents call get_temporal_context 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",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_temporal_context": {}
  }
}
```
