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

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

## Why get_task_status is rated Low

This tool retrieves the status of an existing asynchronous task. It performs a read-only query with no side effects, no data modification, and no execution of external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve status information it should not see, not modify or delete anything.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_task_status' and description 'Get status of an asynchronous task' indicate a query operation that retrieves status information without modifying any data."

## Use case

AI agents call get_task_status 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_task_status": {}
  }
}
```

## 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`
