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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "relay-info",
    "arguments": {}
  }

## Why relay-info is rated Low

This tool retrieves publicly available relay metadata (NIP-11 information document) from a specified relay URL. Fetching metadata is a read-only operation with no capability to modify, delete, or execute code. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve information already intended to be public by relay operators.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'relay-info' and description 'Fetch the NIP-11 relay information document' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. NIP-11 is a Nostr protocol standard for relay metadata."

## Use case

AI agents call relay-info to retrieve information from Nostr Bray 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 Nostr Bray:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "relay-info": {}
  }
}
```
