## Why wp_get_plugin is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves plugin information without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It has minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing it can only access existing plugin metadata, which poses no security, financial, or operational risk. This is a classic Read category tool.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'wp_get_plugin' and description 'Get plugin details by slug' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'Get' and the singular retrieval pattern confirm this is a read-only operation."

## Use case

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