## Why get_general_pot is rated Low

The tool retrieves or queries the current pot amount for a prediction market. The verb 'Get' combined with the lack of any modification, creation, deletion, or execution language confirms this is a read-only data retrieval operation. There is no capability to modify state, execute code, or cause irreversible changes. Severity is low as misuse poses minimal risk—reading data has negligible blast radius.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_general_pot' and description 'Get general pot amount for a prediction market' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_general_pot to retrieve information from Basis 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)
