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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "translate_text",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why translate_text is rated Low

Translation is a data retrieval and transformation operation with no side effects. It queries the local LLM to convert text from one language to another, returns the result, and leaves no state changes. No data is created, modified, deleted, or persisted. This is purely a computational read operation on the input text.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'translate_text' and description 'Translate text using the local LLM' indicate a read-only operation that processes input text and returns translated output without modifying any persistent data or executing external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call translate_text to retrieve information from MCP Server with Local LLM 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 MCP Server with Local LLM:

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
