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

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

## Why delimit_agent_check is rated Low

The naming convention 'agent_check' in a workspace governance context most likely retrieves agent status or policy compliance information rather than executing actions, modifying state, or deleting data. However, confidence is reduced due to empty description and the need for clarification on exact behavior (e.g., whether it performs validation checks that could trigger side effects).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'delimit_agent_check' suggests a status or validation check operation, with 'check' implying query/inspection rather than modification. No description provided to confirm function."

## Use case

AI agents call delimit_agent_check to retrieve information from Delimit 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 Delimit:

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