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

```json

  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why crowdsec_alerts is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves security alert information from CrowdSec (a collaborative security engine). It performs read-only operations to surface detected attack patterns. There is no indication of side effects, code execution, data modification, or destructive actions. The low severity reflects that misuse would only expose information about detected threats, not enable attacks or compromise systems.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'crowdsec_alerts' and description 'Recent CrowdSec alerts. Each alert represents one detected attack pattern' indicate pure data retrieval with no modification, execution, or deletion capabilities."

## Use case

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