## Why get_my_issues is rated Low

This tool retrieves issue data from GitLab without creating, modifying, or deleting any resources. It is purely a query/fetch operation that returns information the authenticated user already has permission to access. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only read the user's own issues. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_my_issues' and description 'Gets my GitLab issues' indicates data retrieval with no modification. The state parameter (opened, closed, all) only filters existing data without side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_my_issues to retrieve information from GitLab 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 GitLab MCP Server:

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
