## Why get_internet_quality_data is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only query operation against the Radar Internet Quality Index to retrieve metrics data. It has no side effects, does not execute code or commands, does not modify state, and does not involve financial transactions. The data retrieved is informational monitoring/diagnostic data. Low severity because misuse would only expose existing metrics data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get'; description explicitly states 'Retrieves' data (bandwidth, latency, DNS response time percentiles) with no mention of modification, deletion, or execution capabilities."

## Use case

AI agents call get_internet_quality_data to retrieve information from Cloudflare 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 Cloudflare:

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