## Why fbi_wanted is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only query against publicly available FBI data. It retrieves and returns information without side effects, making it a Read category tool. The severity is low because it accesses only public information with no potential to cause harm through misuse—the blast radius of an AI agent querying this tool is minimal, as the underlying data is already public and the tool has no write, execute, or…

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Search the FBI's public Wanted/fugitive list' and 'Returns matching subjects with aliases, the responsible field offices, and a link.' The verb 'Search' and 'Returns' indicate data retrieval."

## Use case

AI agents call fbi_wanted to retrieve information from Livedatalink 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 Livedatalink:

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