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

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

## Why list_org_context is rated Low

The tool name pattern 'list_*' is characteristic of read operations that enumerate or fetch data without side effects. Given the server's focus on memory retrieval and context management, this tool likely retrieves stored organizational context.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'list_org_context' suggests listing/retrieving organizational context data. The 'list_' prefix is a strong indicator of a read-only operation that queries and retrieves existing data."

## Use case

AI agents call list_org_context to retrieve information from CogniRepo 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 CogniRepo:

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