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

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

## Why wallet_decrypt is rated High

This tool performs a cryptographic operation (decryption) using wallet private keys. It executes a computation rather than simply reading stored data or writing new data. Misuse could expose sensitive decrypted content or reveal information about wallet key usage. Severity is medium since the operation itself doesn't move funds or delete data, but involves access to wallet cryptographic material.

From the tool's own definition: "Decrypts data using wallet keys"

## Use case

AI agents invoke wallet_decrypt to trigger actions in Bitcoin SV MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
