# view_image

Fetch a rendered Framesail image so you (and your user) can SEE it — pass a URL from get_segment_assets, get_style, or asset endpoints. Returns the image inline. Only Framesail media URLs are allowed.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "view_image",
    "arguments": {
      "url": "<url>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why view_image is rated Low

This tool retrieves and displays image data without creating, modifying, deleting, executing code, or committing financial transactions. It is a simple read operation constrained to Framesail media URLs, posing minimal security risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'view_image' and description explicitly states it 'Fetch[es] a rendered Framesail image' with 'Returns the image inline.' The operation is read-only and retrieves already-rendered media without modification."

Risk signals: Accepts URL/endpoint input (url)

## Use case

AI agents call view_image to retrieve information from Framesail 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 Framesail:

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