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

```json

## Why get_forks is rated Low

This tool retrieves fork data from blockchain/crypto APIs. GET requests are non-destructive read operations. No side effects, no state changes, no financial transactions. Low severity as the blast radius of misuse is limited to accessing publicly available or permissioned crypto fork information.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_forks' and GET endpoint indicate data retrieval only. Description confirms it accesses API data without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call get_forks 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:

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

  "tools": {
    "get_forks": {}
  }
}
```
