## Why server_health is rated Low

This tool performs a simple status check that returns information about server health. It has no side effects, does not modify data, does not execute code or commands, and does not cause destructive or financial impact. It is purely informational, fitting the Read category with low severity due to minimal blast radius if misused.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'server_health' and description 'Check the health status of the HexStrike AI server' indicates a monitoring/query operation that retrieves status information without modifying or executing external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call server_health to retrieve information from Hexstrike Ai 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 Hexstrike Ai:

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