## 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 pure read operation—it accepts text input and returns transformed text output without modifying any stored data, executing external commands, or triggering state changes in the system. The DeepL API call is stateless and idempotent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'translate-text' and description 'Translate text between languages' indicate a query/retrieval operation that processes input text and returns translated output with no side effects, data modification, code execution, or destructive capabilities."

## Use case

AI agents call translate-text to retrieve information from DeepL 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 DeepL MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "translate-text": {}
  }
}
```
