## Facts

- Tool: `subnet_calculator`
- Server: TinyFn (`https://api.tinyfn.io/mcp/all/`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-tinyfn-tinyfn.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/tinyfn-io/tinyfn-mcp
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server auth posture: open
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 2 (2 required)
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `network` | string | yes | Network in CIDR notation |
| `new_prefix` | integer | yes | New prefix length for subnets |

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": "subnet_calculator",
    "arguments": {
      "network": "<network>",
      "new_prefix": 0
    }
  }
}
```

## Why subnet_calculator is rated Low

This tool performs a deterministic mathematical calculation on network CIDR notation or IP ranges to output subnet information. It has no side effects, does not modify data, does not execute commands, and does not move money.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'subnet_calculator' and description 'Calculate subnets from a network' indicate a purely computational/informational operation that retrieves or derives network configuration data without modifying systems or executing arbitrary code."

## Use case

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