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

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

## Why obj_get_font_id is rated Low

This tool appears to query or retrieve the font identifier of an object in Altium Designer, consistent with Read operations (retrieve data with no side effects). The 'get_' naming convention and absence of write/execute/delete indicators support classification as Read. Severity is low because font metadata retrieval poses minimal risk even if misused by an agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'obj_get_font_id' uses 'get_' prefix indicating a retrieval operation with no modification. Description is empty, limiting direct confirmation, but the getter pattern and 'font_id' (an object property) strongly suggest this retrieves metadata about…"

## Use case

AI agents call obj_get_font_id to retrieve information from Eda Agent 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 Eda Agent:

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