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

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

## Why get_users is rated Low

This tool retrieves user data from Auth0 without side effects. It is a read-only operation that lists existing users. While user data may be sensitive, the tool itself performs no destructive, write, execute, or financial operations. The severity is low because listing users is a common and non-disruptive query, though confidence is high given the clear read-only nature.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'get_users' and description states 'List Auth0 users'. This performs a straightforward query/retrieval operation with no modification, deletion, or execution of external commands."

## Use case

AI agents call get_users to retrieve information from Ncp 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 Ncp:

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