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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,

  "params": {
    "name": "animal-fish",

## Why animal-fish is rated Low

This tool only generates and returns fake/random data (a fish species name) using Faker.js. It has no side effects, does not interact with any external systems, and poses virtually no risk if misused.

From the tool's own definition: "Returns a random fish species"

## Use case

AI agents call animal-fish to retrieve information from Faker MCP Server 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 Faker MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "animal-fish": {}
  }
}
```
