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

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

## Why analyze_image is rated Low

The tool retrieves and queries image data from Nextcloud storage to perform analysis operations (question-answering, OCR, visual description, comparison). These are purely informational operations with no side effects—no data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The analysis happens on Claude's side using vision capabilities, not by triggering external operations with unpredictable effects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Analyze one or more images stored in Nextcloud using Claude vision' and lists only read-like operations: 'Ask questions about image content, extract text (OCR), describe visuals, compare images, or analyse documents.' No modification,…"

## Use case

AI agents call analyze_image to retrieve information from AIquila — Nextcloud 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 AIquila — Nextcloud MCP Server:

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