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

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

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

## Why list_views is rated Low

This tool queries and returns information about views in a Rhino document without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no side effects and falls squarely into the Read category with low severity since it only exposes metadata about the document state.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'list_views' and description states 'List all named views in the document plus the currently active view.' The verb 'list' and action of retrieving/querying view metadata with no modifications indicate a read-only operation."

## Use case

AI agents call list_views to retrieve information from Aos 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 Aos:

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