## Why Check_Platform_Status is rated Low

This tool retrieves status information from a public status page. It performs a read-only query with no side effects, no code execution, and no data modification. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only spam status checks or extract publicly available platform health information.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'Check_Platform_Status' and description 'Check Files.com platform status at status.files.com' indicate a query/retrieval operation that accesses public status information without modifying any data or triggering operations."

## Use case

AI agents call Check_Platform_Status to retrieve information from Files Com 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 Files Com:

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