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

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

## Why find_element is rated Low

The tool searches for and returns information about UI elements matching specified text criteria. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions—it only scans and reports on existing UI state. This is consistent with Read category semantics (retrieves or queries data; no side effects).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'find_element' and description 'Find element by text' indicate a query/search operation that locates UI elements without modifying state. This is a read-only operation that retrieves information about the current screen state."

## Use case

AI agents call find_element to retrieve information from Claude Mobile 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 Claude Mobile:

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