## Why multi-step-elicitation is rated Low

This tool appears to be a simple interactive questionnaire that gathers user input about pizza preferences. It retrieves information through elicitation (asking questions) without performing any side effects, modifications to data, or external operations. This is consistent with Read category tools that passively gather information.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'multi-step-elicitation' and description 'Ask for a couple of elicitations about pizza' indicate a conversational query tool that retrieves user preferences/information through prompts."

## Use case

AI agents call multi-step-elicitation to retrieve information from Mcp Test Servers 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 Test Servers:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "multi-step-elicitation": {}
  }
}
```
