## Why tiktok_ads_auth_status is rated Low

This tool retrieves status information about the current authentication state with the TikTok Ads API. Authentication status checks are read-only operations that return information without modifying any data, triggering campaigns, or affecting financial resources. The only risk would be if the returned status information were sensitive, but even then the tool itself performs no destructive or consequential action.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate it 'checks' authentication status, which is a query operation with no side effects. No data is created, modified, deleted, or financial operations are performed."

## Use case

AI agents call tiktok_ads_auth_status to retrieve information from TikTok Ads 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)
