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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why get_backup_job_included_volumes is rated Low

This tool retrieves metadata about which volumes are included in an existing backup job. It performs a read-only lookup with no side effects, no code execution, and no data modification. The blast radius is minimal—at worst, an AI agent learns which volumes are backed up, which is informational only.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_backup_job_included_volumes' and description 'Get volumes included in a backup job' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or execution of backup operations."

## Use case

AI agents call get_backup_job_included_volumes to retrieve information from Proxmox MCP Server 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 Proxmox MCP Server:

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