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

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

## Why get_remote_node_info is rated Low

This tool retrieves hardware information from remote systems without modifying, executing arbitrary commands, or destroying data. However, it uses SSH to access remote nodes, which could reveal sensitive infrastructure details (CPU, memory, network configuration) that an attacker could use for reconnaissance or lateral movement.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Collect hardware info from a remote node via SSH' — a retrieval operation with no stated modification or deletion of data. The word 'Collect' and 'info' indicate read-only querying of system metadata."

## Use case

AI agents call get_remote_node_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_remote_node_info": {}
  }
}
```

## 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`
