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

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

## Why menuLookupTool is rated Low

The tool retrieves menu information for a specified date. This is a read-only operation that queries data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve menu data, posing no risk to system integrity or data security.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'menuLookupTool' and description 'use this tool to look up the menu for a given date' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call menuLookupTool to retrieve information from Genkit MCP 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 Genkit MCP:

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