- Server: Mcp Control Plane (`albertik322-sudo/mcp-control-plane`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/mcp-control-plane.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/albertik322-sudo/mcp-control-plane
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "system_summary",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why system_summary is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves system status information without side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only gather baseline system telemetry, which is informational. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool returns summary statistics: CPU, memory, disk, boot time, and process count. Keywords 'return' and 'summary' indicate read-only retrieval of system state information with no modification, deletion, or execution of commands."

Risk signals: Admin/system-level operation

## Use case

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