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

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

## Why get_polyhaven_categories is rated Low

This tool queries and returns category data from PolyHaven (an external asset library), which is a read-only operation. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The blast radius is minimal—an AI agent misusing this would at worst retrieve unwanted asset categories, causing no side effects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_polyhaven_categories' and description 'Get categories for a PolyHaven asset type' indicate retrieval of metadata/classification information with no modification or execution."

## Use case

AI agents call get_polyhaven_categories to retrieve information from Blender Copilot 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 Blender Copilot MCP Server:

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