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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "prometheus_targets",
    "arguments": {}

## Why prometheus_targets is rated Low

This tool queries and returns information about Prometheus monitoring targets—a read-only retrieval operation. It has no side effects, does not execute code or commands, does not modify data, and does not commit financial or destructive actions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal; exposing target metadata does not directly compromise systems or data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'prometheus_targets' and description 'Return Prometheus scrape targets' indicates retrieval of monitoring configuration data with no modification or execution."

## Use case

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