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

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

## Why sympy_gcd is rated High

This tool executes a symbolic computation (GCD) through the SymPy library. It runs code/computation rather than simply reading stored data, but has no side effects, no data modification, and minimal blast radius. Classified as Execute because it triggers external computation, with low severity since it's a pure mathematical operation with no harmful potential.

From the tool's own definition: "'Greatest common divisor' — computes a mathematical function via SymPy symbolic mathematics engine"

## Use case

AI agents invoke sympy_gcd to trigger actions in Pypi:mcp Sympy. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Pypi:mcp Sympy:
