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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "mongosh-stats",
    "arguments": {}
  }

## Why mongosh-stats is rated Low

This tool performs read-only queries against MongoDB using mongosh to gather statistics and metadata. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute arbitrary operations—it only queries and retrieves database information.

From the tool's own definition: "mongosh-stats retrieves MongoDB database statistics including collections, objects, data size, storage, and indexes. This is explicitly a data retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

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

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