# descriptive_statistics Calculate descriptive statistics: mean, median, mode, std dev, min, max, quartiles. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `descriptive_statistics`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/descriptive-statistics ## Facts - Tool: `descriptive_statistics` - Server: GadgetHumans API Hub (`pypi:gadgethumans-api-hub-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub.md - Install: `npx -y pypi:gadgethumans-api-hub-mcp` - Homepage: https://github.com/scotia1973-bot/api-hub - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "descriptive_statistics", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why descriptive_statistics is rated Low This is a pure calculation utility that reads numeric input and returns computed statistics. It has no ability to modify, delete, or execute operations on external systems. The output is informational only, making it a Read operation with minimal risk. Confidence is high because the function purpose is clear and unambiguous. From the tool's own definition: "Tool 'descriptive_statistics' performs statistical calculations on data (mean, median, mode, standard deviation, min, max, quartiles)." ## Use case AI agents call descriptive_statistics 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": { "descriptive_statistics": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on GadgetHumans API Hub (310) - `clean_whitespace` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/clean-whitespace.md - `gravitational_force_calc` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/gravitational-force-calc.md - `atbash_cipher` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/atbash-cipher.md - `caesar_cipher` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/caesar-cipher.md - `crawl_website` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/crawl-website.md - `electrical_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/electrical-calc.md - `evaluate_math` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/evaluate-math.md - `filter_data` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/filter-data.md - `fn` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/fn.md - `generate_password` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/generate-password.md - `hash_text` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/hash-text.md - `http_client` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/http-client.md - `ini_to_json` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ini-to-json.md - `matrix_operations` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/matrix-operations.md - `momentum_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/momentum-calc.md - `pressure_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/pressure-calc.md - `ratio_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ratio-calc.md - `test_regex` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/test-regex.md - `web_scrape` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/web-scrape.md - `agent_memory` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/agent-memory.md - `generate_ulids` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/generate-ulids.md - `alternating_case` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/alternating-case.md - `amortization_calc` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/amortization-calc.md - `anagram_check` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/anagram-check.md - `analyze_tone` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/analyze-tone.md - `analyze_url` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/analyze-url.md - `angle_convert` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/angle-convert.md - `area_convert` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/area-convert.md - `ascii_table` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ascii-table.md - `auto_loan_calc` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/auto-loan-calc.md - …and 280 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
