## Why crypto_gas is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries real-time gas price information across multiple blockchain networks. It performs a pure read operation—fetching public blockchain data for informational purposes (cost prediction and batching strategy). No transactions are executed, no funds are moved, no data is modified or deleted. The low cost ($0.005–$0.05 USDC) reflects a lightweight data query.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'crypto_gas' and description 'Live gas prices (gwei) across Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon for transaction-cost prediction and batching' indicate retrieval of current blockchain gas price data with no side effects or state modification."

## Use case

AI agents call crypto_gas to retrieve information from Omnicall — Agent Tools Gateway 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 Omnicall — Agent Tools Gateway:
