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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "monty_list_transforms",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why monty_list_transforms is rated Low

This is a straightforward read operation that inventories local transform definitions and returns their metadata. It has no side effects, does not execute transforms, does not modify files, and does not create or delete data. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only learn what transforms exist locally.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool lists transforms from local files (.cowork/transforms/*.monty) and retrieves basic metadata (name, description, file stats). The action is purely retrieving/querying data with no modification, deletion, or execution capability."

## Use case

AI agents call monty_list_transforms to retrieve information from CoWork OS 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 CoWork OS:

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