## Facts

- Tool: `images`
- Server: Git (`Dave-London/Pare`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-dave-london-git.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/Dave-London/pare
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

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

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

## Why images is rated Low

This is a read-only operation that retrieves and presents information about Docker images. It has no side effects, makes no modifications to images or containers, and does not execute code or trigger external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could learn about available images but cannot change system state.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'images' and description 'Lists Docker images with structured repository, tag, size, and creation info' indicates a query/list operation that retrieves metadata about existing Docker images without modifying or executing anything."

## Use case

AI agents call images to retrieve information from Git 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 Git:

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

## 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`
