## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `async` | boolean | no | If true, returns a job_id immediately (<200ms) instead of waiting for the result. Poll the result with job_result(job_id). Use for slow tools to avoid client ti |

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {

    "arguments": {

## Why ip_contract_clause_extractor is rated Low

The tool reads and analyzes input text (employment contracts) to extract and classify clauses. It performs no writes, execution, deletions, or financial transactions — purely a read/analysis operation. Severity is medium because it processes sensitive legal and HR documents containing confidential employment terms and IP assignments, and misuse could expose proprietary contract details or misjudge legal risk levels.

From the tool's own definition: "analyzes employment contract text to identify and extract IP-related clauses... Returns structured data with clause types, risk levels, and relevant legal context"

## Use case

AI agents call ip_contract_clause_extractor to retrieve information from Mcp Knowledge 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 Mcp Knowledge:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
