Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "ip_info_2",
    "arguments": {
      "ip": "<ip>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why ip_info_2 is rated Low

This tool retrieves publicly available information about an IP address. It performs a read-only lookup operation with no ability to modify, delete, or execute code. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only gather IP geolocation or network metadata, which poses no direct risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'ip_info_2' and description 'Get basic information about an IP address' indicate a query/lookup operation that retrieves data without modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call ip_info_2 to retrieve information from TinyFn 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 TinyFn:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "ip_info_2": {}
  }
}
```
