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

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

## Why get_memory_info is rated Low

This tool queries system memory statistics (capacity, usage percentages, availability). It is a read-only operation that retrieves information about the system state without modifying, executing, or affecting any data or processes. The low severity reflects minimal risk even if an AI misuses it—the worst case is unnecessary API calls.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Get RAM and swap capacity, usage percentages, and availability' — retrieves system memory information with no side effects or data modification."

## Use case

AI agents call get_memory_info to retrieve information from CLIO Adios 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 CLIO Adios:

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