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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "view_orders",
    "arguments": {
      "session_id": "<session_id>"
    }
  }
}

## Why view_orders is rated Low

This tool purely retrieves and displays existing order data. It has no side effects, creates no new data, modifies nothing, and executes no code or commands. The parameters (page, page_size, sort_by, filters) are all for querying and presenting information. Even in the context of an MMO game economy, viewing orders is a passive read operation with negligible risk of misuse by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "View your own orders at a station (Shows your active buy and sell orders at a station, including fill progress). The tool retrieves and displays order information without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations."

## Use case

AI agents call view_orders to retrieve information from SpaceMolt 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 SpaceMolt:

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