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

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

## Why realestate_status is rated Low

The tool retrieves and displays informational status about real-estate data availability and refresh timing. It performs no writes, deletions, code execution, or financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only waste time querying status information repeatedly.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description indicates it 'Report[s]' coverage metrics: 'number of regions, total monthly data points, the latest month available, and last refresh.' These are read-only status/metadata queries with no modification, deletion, or execution of external…"

## Use case

AI agents call realestate_status 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": {
    "realestate_status": {}
  }
}
```
