## Why discord_get_presence_state is rated Low

This tool queries the current presence/status state of users on the Discord gateway without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely informational and returns data without side effects. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this tool could only retrieve presence information, which is non-harmful read access.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'discord_get_presence_state' and description 'Get gateway presence runtime state' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call discord_get_presence_state to retrieve information from Discord 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 Discord:

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