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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "lookup_country",
    "arguments": {
      "country": "<country>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why lookup_country is rated Low

This tool performs a simple data lookup returning static country information. The mention of 'finance' and 'travel' in the use case description refers to how the *caller* might use the data downstream, not what the tool itself does. The tool itself is purely informational with no capability to modify state, execute operations, or move money.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Get country metadata (capital, population, currency, languages, flag)' — a retrieval operation with no side effects. No creation, modification, deletion, code execution, or financial transaction occurs."

## Use case

AI agents call lookup_country to retrieve information from GoCreative Agent API 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 GoCreative Agent API:

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