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

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

## Why neuron_get_knowledge_base is rated Low

This tool retrieves data from a knowledge base without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a straightforward read operation on stored data. Severity is low because knowledge base metadata retrieval poses minimal risk even if an AI misuses it—at worst, it could access information the bot has permissions for.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Retrieve detailed information about a specific knowledge base by its ID' - a pure retrieval operation with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call neuron_get_knowledge_base 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_get_knowledge_base": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
