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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why renef_module_list is rated Low

This tool retrieves and displays metadata about native libraries currently loaded in a process. It performs introspection only—reading memory addresses and library names—with no side effects. While the broader Renef server enables reverse engineering and native code manipulation, this specific tool is strictly informational.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'renef_module_list' and description 'Lists all loaded .so libraries in the target process with their addresses' indicate querying/retrieving information about loaded modules without modifying or executing code."

## Use case

AI agents call renef_module_list to retrieve information from Renef 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 Renef:

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