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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why getBatchMarketCap is rated Low

getBatchMarketCap retrieves and queries public financial data (market capitalization metrics) for multiple companies without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any financial transactions. It is purely informational. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only access or analyze existing public financial data, not alter markets, execute trades, or cause financial harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Retrieve[s] market capitalization data' with no mention of modification, deletion, or financial transactions. The verb 'retrieve' combined with 'data for multiple companies' indicates a read-only query operation."

## Use case

AI agents call getBatchMarketCap to retrieve information from Financial Modeling Prep 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)
