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

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

## Why chronicapulse is rated Low

ChronicaPulse provides read-only access to historical archives and genealogical databases. Users can search and retrieve information but cannot modify, delete, or execute arbitrary operations. While the server charges per query (x402 USDC payment), the tool itself does not move money—the payment is infrastructure-level.

From the tool's own definition: "All endpoints are query/search operations: 'search', 'person research', 'obituary research', 'historical event coverage', 'place history', 'immigration research', 'military service research', 'business history', 'timeline'."

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (destination) · High parameter count (18 properties)

## Use case

AI agents call chronicapulse to retrieve information from Pulsenetwork 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 Pulsenetwork:

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