{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "scrape_coinbase",

## Why scrape_coinbase is rated Low

This tool retrieves cryptocurrency pricing information from Coinbase without side effects. It does not execute code, modify data, delete anything, or move money. Although the server handles financial operations (x402 + USDC payments), this specific tool only reads ticker data. The pay-per-call model covers the cost of the API call, not a financial transaction initiated by the tool itself.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'scrape_coinbase' and description 'Get a Coinbase ticker' indicate data retrieval. The example call retrieves cryptocurrency pricing data (symbol: 'BTC-USD') with no modification, deletion, or financial transaction capability."

## Use case

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