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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get-categories-id",

## Why get-categories-id is rated Low

This tool retrieves category information by identifier. The use of 'get' combined with the passive description 'Get categories by id' clearly indicates a read-only operation that fetches existing data. No creation, modification, deletion, code execution, or financial operations are suggested. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an unauthorized query returns data visibility issues at worst.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get-categories-id' and description 'Get categories by id' indicate a retrieval operation that queries data without modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get-categories-id to retrieve information from GoHighLevel MCP Server 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 GoHighLevel MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get-categories-id": {}
  }
}
```
