## Why boot_errors is rated Low

This tool only retrieves/reads system journal log entries from the current boot session. It has no side effects, does not modify any state, and simply queries existing log data. Severity is low as it only exposes log information.

From the tool's own definition: "Return warning-or-worse journal entries from the current boot."

## Use case

AI agents call boot_errors to retrieve information from Mcp Control Plane 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 Mcp Control Plane:

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