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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,

## Why api_vestige_view_protocol_by_id is rated Low

This tool retrieves protocol information by identifier from the Algorand blockchain. The 'view' verb and 'Get' action confirm it performs a read-only query operation. No modification, deletion, execution, or financial transaction is implied. Severity is low because retrieving protocol metadata poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'view' and description states 'Get protocol by id' — both indicate data retrieval with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call api_vestige_view_protocol_by_id 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": {
    "api_vestige_view_protocol_by_id": {}
  }
}
```
