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

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

## Why list_persons is rated Low

This is a read-only operation that retrieves and queries person data from the Huly workspace with optional filtering. It has no side effects, cannot modify data, and returns information. The blast radius is minimal—an agent could potentially discover user information but cannot act on it or change it with this tool alone.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'list_persons' and description explicitly states it 'List all persons' and 'Returns persons sorted by modification date'. Supports searching by name and email substrings. No modification, deletion, or execution described."

## Use case

AI agents call list_persons to retrieve information from Huly 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 Huly:

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