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

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

## Why random_credit_card is rated Low

This tool generates synthetic/fake credit card data for testing purposes — it does not perform any financial transactions, access real data, or modify state. It is effectively a data-generation (read-like) operation. However, it carries medium severity because generated fake credit card numbers could be misused for fraud testing, form bypassing, or social engineering if an AI agent were to misuse the output.

From the tool's own definition: "Generate random credit card details (fake, for testing only)"

## Use case

AI agents call random_credit_card 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": {
    "random_credit_card": {}
  }
}
```
