## Why todaysMenu is rated Low

This tool queries and returns information about today's menu items. It performs a read-only retrieval operation without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this tool could at worst retrieve menu data it shouldn't have access to, but cannot cause data loss, code execution, or financial harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'todaysMenu' and description 'retrieve all the items on today' indicate a data retrieval operation with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call todaysMenu 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": {
    "todaysMenu": {}
  }
}
```
