## Why sportsrc_get_sports is rated Low

This is a straightforward data retrieval endpoint that queries available sport categories and returns identifiers. It has no side effects, does not execute code or commands, does not modify data, and poses minimal security risk even if misused by an agent (worst case: retrieving unnecessary metadata).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'List sport categories' — a read-only retrieval operation that returns reference data (ids) for use in subsequent queries. No modification, execution, deletion, or financial transaction occurs."

## Use case

AI agents call sportsrc_get_sports to retrieve information from Sports Hub 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)

```json
