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

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

## Why get_preset_property is rated Low

This tool retrieves property values from Unreal Engine Remote Control Presets. The verb 'Get' and the absence of any modification language (set, update, create, delete) clearly indicate a read-only operation. The blast radius is minimal—querying preset properties cannot alter engine state, assets, or user data. Confidence is high due to explicit 'Get' naming and retrieval-focused description.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_preset_property' combined with description 'Get a property value exposed via a Remote Control Preset' indicates retrieval of data with no modification capability."

## Use case

AI agents call get_preset_property to retrieve information from Unreal 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 Unreal:

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