## Why get_custom_fields is rated Low

This tool queries and returns custom field metadata for a location without creating, modifying, or deleting data. It is a read-only operation that retrieves information. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could retrieve custom field definitions but cannot perform destructive or financial actions with this tool alone.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_custom_fields' and description 'List all custom fields for a location' indicate a retrieval operation with no data modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_custom_fields 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_custom_fields": {}
  }
}
```
