## Why hiveagent_balance is rated Low

This tool retrieves balance and transaction information without executing payments, transfers, or other financial operations. It has no side effects and falls squarely into the Read category. Although it accesses financial data, it does not commit financial obligations or move money, so it does not qualify as Financial category.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'hiveagent_balance' and description 'Check your agent's balance — available funds, locked in escrow, total earned, total spent, and transaction history.' indicate retrieval of financial data only."

## Use case

AI agents call hiveagent_balance to retrieve information from Hiveagent 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 Hiveagent:

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