## Why ncaaf_get_teams is rated Low

This tool retrieves or queries sports data (NCAAF teams) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no capability to alter state, execute code, or produce side effects. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only retrieve unwanted data, not cause harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'ncaaf_get_teams' and description 'Get all NCAAF teams with optional filtering' indicate data retrieval only. The verb 'Get' and context of querying teams from a sports data API confirm read-only operations with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call ncaaf_get_teams to retrieve information from 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 Mcp:

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