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

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

## Why util_api_health_report is rated Low

This tool performs diagnostic queries against API endpoints to retrieve health and performance metrics. It retrieves information only (status, latency, redirects, content type, reachability) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any code. The use of 'measure' and passive observations confirms it is a Read operation with minimal risk. Low severity due to its limited scope and lack of side effects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Measure[s] endpoint status, latency, redirects, content type, and reachability' — purely observational operations with no modification or side effects."

Risk signals: Accepts URL/endpoint input (url)

## Use case

AI agents call util_api_health_report 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": {
    "util_api_health_report": {}
  }
}
```

## 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`
