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

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

## Why adb_selinux_status is rated Low

This is a read-only diagnostic tool that queries system security settings without performing any actions that could modify, delete, or execute operations. While it accesses security-sensitive information (SELinux status), the blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent cannot cause harm by reading this data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description indicates it 'checks' and 'shows' SELinux status information—no creation, modification, deletion, or execution of commands."

Risk signals: Admin/system-level operation

## Use case

AI agents call adb_selinux_status to retrieve information from Deepadb 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 Deepadb:

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