## Why get_contact_task is rated Low

This tool retrieves information about a specific task associated with a contact. The verb 'Get' and the absence of any language suggesting modification, deletion, or execution of external operations clearly place this in the Read category. The blast radius is minimal—retrieving contact task data poses no risk of data loss, system compromise, or unintended side effects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_contact_task' and description 'Get a single task for a contact' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion."

## Use case

AI agents call get_contact_task to retrieve information from GoHighLevel MCP Server 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 GoHighLevel MCP Server:

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