## Why mcp_get_version is rated Low

This tool retrieves metadata about the WordPress installation (version number and update availability). It performs no side effects, does not modify data, and does not execute code or trigger external operations. It is purely informational, fitting the 'Read' category for data retrieval with no blast radius if misused.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'mcp_get_version' and description 'Get WordPress version and update status' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves version information without modifying or executing anything."

## Use case

AI agents call mcp_get_version to retrieve information from Wordpress 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 Wordpress:

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