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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get_session_context",

## Why get_session_context is rated Low

This tool retrieves and summarizes project context information (tasks, bugs, changes, blockers) from an internal project memory system. It has no side effects, creates no new data, executes no external operations, and does not delete or modify anything. It falls squarely within the Read category as a data retrieval and querying function.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool name 'get_session_context' and description 'Summarize active tasks, open bugs, recent changes, and blockers from project memory' indicate data retrieval and aggregation operations only."

## Use case

AI agents call get_session_context to retrieve information from Project Guardian MCP 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 Project Guardian MCP:

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