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

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

## Why logs is rated Low

This tool only retrieves and returns log data in a structured format. It has no capability to modify, delete, or execute operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could potentially read sensitive information from logs, but cannot alter system state or perform destructive actions. This is a classic Read operation.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'logs' and description 'Retrieves container logs as structured line arrays' indicate a read-only operation that fetches existing data without modification, deletion, or execution."

## Use case

AI agents call logs to retrieve information from Go 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 Go:

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

## 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`
