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

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

  "params": {
    "name": "alpha_get_market",
    "arguments": {}

## Why alpha_get_market is rated Low

This tool only fetches and returns market data (details for a prediction market). It accepts parameters (marketAppId and optionally marketId) but does not create, modify, delete, or execute operations. The 'Fetch' verb and context of retrieving market details classify it as a Read operation with low severity—there is minimal blast radius if misused, as it only exposes information retrieval.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'alpha_get_market' and description 'Fetch full details for a single Alpha Arcade prediction market' indicate a read-only operation that retrieves data without modifying or executing side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call alpha_get_market to retrieve information from Algorand MCP 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 Algorand MCP:

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