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

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

## Why pg_cron_list_jobs is rated Low

This is a read-only operation that queries and displays existing cron job metadata. It has no side effects, does not execute jobs, and does not modify any data. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker gains visibility into scheduled tasks but cannot trigger or alter them.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'list', description states 'List all scheduled cron jobs' and 'Shows job ID, name, schedule, command, and status' — retrieves and displays information without modifying or executing any jobs."

## Use case

AI agents call pg_cron_list_jobs to retrieve information from PostgreSQL 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)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches PostgreSQL MCP Server:

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