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

```json

  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why github_audit_repo is rated Low

The tool performs a read-only audit of repository configuration and security settings. It retrieves and reports on health indicators without modifying any data. No writes, executions, deletions, or financial actions are implied.

From the tool's own definition: "'repo health check' covering README, license, branch protection, Dependabot, secret scanning — purely auditing/inspecting existing state"

## Use case

AI agents call github_audit_repo to retrieve information from Github 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 Github:

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