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

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

## Why audit_find_missing_decoupling is rated Low

The 'audit_find_missing_decoupling' tool performs a read-only analysis of PCB designs to identify missing decoupling capacitors. It retrieves and evaluates design data but does not create, modify, delete, or execute external operations. This is consistent with the server's stated capability of 'design review, audits' which are inherently non-destructive inspection operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'audit_find_missing_decoupling' indicates a design review/audit function that searches for missing decoupling capacitors in a PCB design. The audit category of tools typically performs analysis and reporting without modifying designs."

## Use case

AI agents call audit_find_missing_decoupling to retrieve information from Altium-MCP-Suite 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 Altium-MCP-Suite:

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