## Why proxmox_lxc_notes_read is rated Low

This tool retrieves metadata (description/notes) from LXC containers without modifying state, executing code, or causing side effects. The format detection and secret reference parsing are informational operations only. While it may expose sensitive information in notes (lowering severity from critical), the action itself is read-only data retrieval.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name includes 'read' and description states 'Read LXC description/notes' with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities mentioned."

## Use case

AI agents call proxmox_lxc_notes_read to retrieve information from MCP Proxmox 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)

```json
{
  "version": "1",
