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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get_api_tags",
    "arguments": {}

## Why get_api_tags is rated Low

This tool retrieves metadata (tags) from an API resource in Postman. It performs no modifications, deletions, or external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve tag information already accessible to the authenticated user. This fits the 'Read' category as a simple query operation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_api_tags' and description 'Get tags for an API' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'get' and the read-only nature of querying tags confirm this is a data retrieval action."

## Use case

AI agents call get_api_tags to retrieve information from Postman 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 Postman:

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