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

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

## Why mongosh-stats is rated Low

This tool queries and returns metadata and statistics about MongoDB databases without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing arbitrary operations. It has no side effects on the database and presents minimal risk even if invoked by an AI agent, as it only exposes informational queries about database structure and size.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description specifies 'Gets MongoDB database statistics' - retrieving collections, objects, data size, storage, and indexes information with no modification or deletion of data."

## Use case

AI agents call mongosh-stats to retrieve information from Cargo 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 Cargo:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "mongosh-stats": {}
  }
}
```
