## Why list_bills_owed is rated Low

This tool retrieves read-only information about outstanding bills and payment obligations. While it relates to financial data, it does not move money, create charges, process payments, or modify records. It is a passive data retrieval operation answering a query about business state. Classification as Read is appropriate; severity is low because misuse would only expose information already owned by the business.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'List the contractor/vendor bills' and 'Answers 'what bills do I still need to pay?'' — core verb is 'list', which retrieves and queries existing financial data without modifying it."

## Use case

AI agents call list_bills_owed to retrieve information from Savi Tools 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 Savi Tools:

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