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

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

## Why getCableTestLogs is rated Low

This tool retrieves historical cable diagnostic data from a network switch. It performs a read-only query of existing logs with no side effects, no code execution, no data modification, and no destructive actions. The information returned (test results, cable length estimates, fault detection) is diagnostic metadata useful for troubleshooting, not operational commands.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'getCableTestLogs' and description 'Get cable test logs' and 'Returns history' indicate a retrieval operation. The tool queries diagnostic logs without modifying, executing operations, or affecting network state."

## Use case

AI agents call getCableTestLogs to retrieve information from Tplink Omada 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 Tplink Omada:

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