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

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

## Why paper_recommend is rated Low

paper_recommend performs local code analysis to suggest papers from the academic sources already available on the server. It retrieves and ranks existing data (papers) based on input parameters but does not create, modify, delete, or execute external actions. The operation is informational and reversible with no side effects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool analyzes workspace code and recommends relevant academic papers. The description indicates a retrieval/recommendation operation with no data modification, deletion, or external execution."

## Use case

AI agents call paper_recommend to retrieve information from Scholar 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 Scholar MCP Server:

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