# data_transfer

Data Transfer Time Calculator — Transfer time from file size and bandwidth (decimal units, 1 byte = 8 bits).

Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `data_transfer`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/com-wingmanprotocol-agent-gateway/data-transfer

## Facts

- Tool: `data_transfer`
- Server: Gateway (`https://wingmanprotocol.com/mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-wingmanprotocol-agent-gateway.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/WingmanProtocol-Agent-Gateway/wingman-agent-gateway
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server auth posture: open
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 4 (2 required)
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `size_unit` | string | no | Size unit |
| `size_value` | number | yes | File size value |
| `speed_unit` | string | no | Bandwidth unit |
| `speed_value` | number | yes | Bandwidth value |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "data_transfer",
    "arguments": {
      "size_value": 0,
      "speed_value": 0
    }
  }
}
```

## Why data_transfer is rated Low

This is a pure computational tool that reads input parameters and returns a calculated result. It performs no side effects on data, systems, or resources. The blast radius of misuse is negligible—an agent could only waste compute cycles on calculations, not modify, delete, or execute anything. Classification as Read is appropriate for informational/calculation tools.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'data_transfer' and description 'Data Transfer Time Calculator — Transfer time from file size and bandwidth' indicate a calculation/query function that takes inputs (file size, bandwidth) and returns computed transfer time."

## Use case

AI agents call data_transfer to retrieve information from 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 Gateway:

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
