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

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

## Why get_niagara_user_parameters is rated Low

The 'get_' prefix strongly suggests data retrieval. Although the description is empty, the tool name and context (Niagara VFX system parameters) indicate this fetches existing configuration data without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only read parameter values, not change engine state.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool name 'get_niagara_user_parameters' clearly indicates a retrieval operation ('get'). Niagara is UE5's VFX system, and retrieving user parameters is a read-only query with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_niagara_user_parameters to retrieve information from Unreal-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 Unreal-MCP:

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