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

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

## Why get_variable is rated Low

This tool only queries and retrieves the current state of AutoCAD system variables without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no side effects and falls squarely into the Read category with low severity since variable retrieval poses minimal risk to system integrity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'get_variable' and description states it retrieves ('获取' = get/retrieve) the current value of AutoCAD system variables. No modification, deletion, or execution capability."

## Use case

AI agents call get_variable to retrieve information from Pypi:best Cad 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 Pypi:best Cad:

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