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

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

## Why load_profile is rated Low

The name 'load_profile' is most consistent with a Read operation—fetching or retrieving profile data. With an empty description, confidence is reduced. No evidence of side effects, data modification, destructive actions, or financial operations. Severity is low as profile retrieval in a flashcard system poses minimal risk even if misused.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'load_profile' suggests retrieving/loading a profile configuration or state. Description is empty, limiting evidence precision."

## Use case

AI agents call load_profile to retrieve information from Anki 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 Anki:

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