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

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

## Why gcp_agent_list_reasoning_engines is rated Low

Listing resources is a read-only query operation that retrieves information about existing Reasoning Engines without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The blast radius if misused is minimal (information disclosure only). Confidence is high given the clear 'list' verb and descriptive text.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List Vertex AI Reasoning Engines' — a retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call gcp_agent_list_reasoning_engines to retrieve information from GCP 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 GCP MCP Server:

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

## 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`
