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

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

## Why calculate_bmi is rated Low

This is a mathematical utility that takes numeric inputs (weight and height) and returns a computed value (BMI). It has no side effects, does not modify any data, does not execute code or commands, and does not involve financial transactions. It fits the Read category as a data computation/retrieval tool with minimal security risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Calculate BMI (Body Mass Index) from weight and height' - a pure computation that retrieves a calculated result without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call calculate_bmi to retrieve information from GadgetHumans API 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)

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

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