## Why get_presence is rated Low

This tool queries the current presence status of a user, which is a read-only operation that retrieves data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. The low severity reflects that presence status information has minimal security impact if accessed by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_presence' and description 'Get your current presence status' indicate retrieval of user status information with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_presence to retrieve information from Freshdesk 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 Freshdesk:

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