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

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

## Why get_genome_links is rated Low

This is a straightforward data retrieval tool that fetches assembly links based on accession identifiers. It performs a lookup/query operation with no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no irreversible actions. This is characteristic of Read category tools. The low severity reflects that retrieving public genomic assembly links poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'get_genome_links' and description states 'Get assembly links by accessions' — a retrieval operation that queries and returns reference links without modifying any data or triggering external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call get_genome_links to retrieve information from OrigeneMCP 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 OrigeneMCP:

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