## Why get_committee_publication_types is rated Low

This tool queries a reference dataset of publication/document types available in the UK Parliament system. It has no side effects, cannot modify data, and poses no risk of unintended consequences. The blast radius of misuse is negligible—an AI could at worst retrieve this public metadata multiple times, which is harmless.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool retrieves and lists committee publication types and report types. Described as 'Get all types' with no parameters that enable filtering, modification, or execution."

## Use case

AI agents call get_committee_publication_types to retrieve information from UK Parliament 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)

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