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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "gov.fda-device-events",
    "arguments": {}

}
```

## Why gov.fda-device-events is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves publicly available regulatory data from the FDA's MAUDE database. It has no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or commit financial transactions. Even if an AI agent misuses it by querying extensively, the worst outcome is information disclosure of already-public data, which poses minimal harm. The tool is clearly Read-category.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool retrieves 'FDA medical device adverse event reports (MAUDE)' and supports filtering by device, manufacturer, or product code."

## Use case

AI agents call gov.fda-device-events 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": {
    "gov.fda-device-events": {}
  }
}
```
