- Homepage: https://github.com/GENTEL-lab/OrigeneMCP
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade C, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no

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

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

## Why get_status is rated Low

This tool retrieves status information without performing any side effects, modifications, deletions, or external operations. It aligns with the 'Read' category definition: retrieves or queries data with no side effects. The severity is low because even if misused by an AI agent, it only exposes status data with minimal blast radius.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_status' and description 'Retrieve status object list' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification capability. The verb 'Retrieve' and noun 'status object list' are characteristic of read-only queries."

## Use case

AI agents call get_status 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_status": {}
  }
}
```
