## Why get_current_prices is rated Low

This is a read-only operation that retrieves current cryptocurrency prices. No side effects, no data modification, no execution of external operations, no financial transactions. The tool is part of a data aggregation service providing market data. Low severity because price data is public information and misuse would only result in information disclosure or API quota consumption, not irreversible harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_current_prices' and context of crypto data retrieval server (DefiLlama, CoinGecko, Arkham Intelligence) indicate querying/retrieving price data without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call get_current_prices to retrieve information from REI Crypto 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 REI Crypto MCP Server:
