## Why gd_signature_help is rated Low

This is a language server introspection tool that retrieves and displays signature metadata to aid development. It performs no mutations, executes no code, and has no external side effects. Fits Read category with low severity since misuse would only provide incorrect documentation hints.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool shows call signatures and parameter hints (IDE feature); GDScript language server's signatureHelpProvider. No data modification, execution, or side effects—purely informational about syntax/API."

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (path)

## Use case

AI agents call gd_signature_help to retrieve information from Breakpoint 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 Breakpoint:

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