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

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

## Why extract_images is rated Low

Extracting images from documents is a data retrieval operation with no side effects or modifications. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could exfiltrate images but cannot damage documents or systems. Low confidence reflects the empty tool description, but the name and server context strongly indicate a read-only operation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'extract_images' indicates retrieval of image data from documents. Server description confirms 'image extraction' as a capability."

## Use case

AI agents call extract_images to retrieve information from Docx 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 Docx:

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