  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",

## Why get_card_details is rated Low

This tool retrieves sensitive financial data (PAN, CVV, expiry) but does not create, modify, delete, or move money. It is a Read operation accessing highly sensitive payment card information. High severity reflects that exposing this data could lead to fraud or unauthorized card use, despite being read-only. Audit-logging mitigates some risk but does not change the operation category.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name explicitly 'get_card_details' and description states it retrieves 'PAN, CVV, and expiry' — sensitive payment card data. The phrase 'Get' and 'for a card' confirms read-only retrieval operation."

## Use case

AI agents call get_card_details to retrieve information from Agentpay 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)

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