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

## Why neuron_browse_pool is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries publicly available marketplace data without side effects. It matches the Read category definition: 'retrieves or queries data; no side effects (search, list, get, fetch).' The 'browse' and 'filtering' operations are purely informational. Severity is low because misuse would only expose existing public catalog information.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Browse the shared marketplace pool' and 'optional filtering by type, category, tags, or search query' — these are read-only retrieval operations with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities."

## Use case

AI agents call neuron_browse_pool to retrieve information from Neuron 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 Neuron:

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