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

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

## Why get_device_system_information is rated Low

This tool retrieves system information from a device without modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. It is a pure read operation that queries the current state of device configuration and status. The low severity reflects that exposing system information poses minimal risk compared to tools that modify configurations or execute commands.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get_device_system_information' and description states 'Get detailed device system status' — both indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_device_system_information to retrieve information from Fortimanager 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 Fortimanager:

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