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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "econ.indicator",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why econ.indicator is rated Low

This is a straightforward data retrieval tool that fetches public economic indicators. It has no capability to modify data, execute code, delete information, or commit financial transactions. The fact that the server uses USDC payment for API access does not change the tool's own function—it merely retrieves and returns economic data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it retrieves 'Latest reading of a curated US macro indicator' and clarifies users can 'Pass indicator...or omit for all.' It queries existing data from public sources (BLS/BEA/Fed via FRED) with no modification, creation, deletion, or…"

## Use case

AI agents call econ.indicator 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": {
    "econ.indicator": {}
  }
}
```
