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

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

## Why org_dependencies is rated Low

This tool appears designed to retrieve or query dependency information within an organization or repository structure. No indication of modification, deletion, code execution, or financial impact. The sibling tools on this CogniRepo server are primarily read-oriented (search, traverse, explain, get). Even in conservative interpretation, 'dependencies' retrieval is a non-destructive query operation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'org_dependencies' and context from sibling tools (dependency_graph, architecture_overview, cross_repo_search) indicate data retrieval about organizational or repository dependencies."

## Use case

AI agents call org_dependencies 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": {
    "org_dependencies": {}
  }
}
```
