## Why news_headlines is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries news headlines—a read-only operation with no ability to create, modify, delete, or execute external code. The financial cost is incidental to the service model and does not make the tool itself financial in nature, as it does not move money or commit financial obligations on behalf of the user. The low cost ($0.005–$0.05 per call) and monitoring use case confirm minimal blast radius.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'news_headlines' and description 'Recent news headlines for a topic (title, source, published date, link) via Google News' indicate retrieval of publicly available news data with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call news_headlines to retrieve information from Prism — Data Enrichment for AI Agents 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)
