## Why get_job is rated Low

This tool retrieves job information from a BullMQ queue by ID. It performs a read-only operation with no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute any jobs. The blast radius of misuse is minimal: an AI agent could access job data it shouldn't see, but cannot harm systems or data. Therefore, it is classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_job' and description 'Get a specific job by ID' indicate a retrieval operation that queries job data without modification or deletion."

## Use case

AI agents call get_job to retrieve information from BullMQ 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 BullMQ MCP Server:

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