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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get_network_responses",
    "arguments": {}

## Why get_network_responses is rated Low

This tool retrieves network responses from browser activity—a read-only operation with no side effects on system state. However, severity is raised to medium because retrieved network responses may contain sensitive data (credentials, API keys, personal information), and an AI agent with access could exfiltrate such data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_network_responses' with prefix 'get_' indicates data retrieval. The Playwright MCP Server description establishes context for browser automation and content extraction."

## Use case

AI agents call get_network_responses to retrieve information from Playwright 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 Playwright MCP Server:

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