## Why ghl_get_shipping_zone is rated Low

This tool retrieves information about a shipping zone configuration. It performs a read-only query operation that does not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only access shipping zone details already configured in the system, posing no risk to data integrity, financial systems, or external operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name indicates 'get' operation; description states 'Get details of a specific shipping zone' — a retrieval action with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call ghl_get_shipping_zone to retrieve information from Ghl 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 Ghl:

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