## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `frame` | string | yes | Short temperament frame or operating pattern. |
| `agent_id` | string | no | Stable agent id when no session_id is available. |
| `session_id` | string | no | Optional active session UUID. |
| `constraints` | string | no | Optional constraints or operating boundaries. |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "temperament_frame",
    "arguments": {
      "frame": "<frame>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why temperament_frame is rated Low

This tool retrieves or characterizes metadata about an agent's operational state (temperament), consistent with Read category behavior. The operation has no side effects on external systems or data; it provides observational context. Severity is low because misuse would only result in incorrect characterization of state, not execution of harmful operations, data loss, or financial impact.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'temperament_frame' and description 'Frame the agent's operational temperament without reducing it to a score' indicate a retrieval or assessment operation with no state modification."

## Use case

AI agents call temperament_frame to retrieve information from Delx MCP Server 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 Delx MCP Server:

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

## 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`
