## Why gradle-tasks is rated Low

This tool queries and returns information about available Gradle tasks—a pure data retrieval operation with no side effects, no code execution, and no modifications to the build system or project. It belongs in the Read category with low severity since misuse would only result in information disclosure, not harmful actions.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'gradle-tasks' and description 'Lists available Gradle tasks with descriptions and groups' indicate a read-only operation that retrieves and displays information without modifying any state."

## Use case

AI agents call gradle-tasks to retrieve information from Lint 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 Lint:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "gradle-tasks": {}
  }
}
```
