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

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

## Why system_uptime is rated Low

This tool retrieves read-only information about how long the system has been running. It performs no writes, deletions, code execution, or financial operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker gaining access to uptime information poses negligible risk compared to other system management tools available on this server.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'system_uptime' and description 'Get system uptime information' indicate a query operation that retrieves system metrics without modification or side effects."

Risk signals: Admin/system-level operation

## Use case

AI agents call system_uptime to retrieve information from Mcp Windows 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 Windows:

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