## Why crow_server_status is rated Low

This tool retrieves and displays server status information without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is a simple read/query operation that returns observational data about system state. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—incorrect or malicious use would only expose information about which servers are running, not cause harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate a status query operation: 'Show which servers are active/inactive and their tool counts.' The verb 'show' and the informational nature of reporting on server status and tool counts indicate data retrieval with no side…"

## Use case

AI agents call crow_server_status to retrieve information from Crow 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 Crow:

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
