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

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

## Why task_scheduler_list is rated Low

This tool retrieves information about scheduled tasks on a Windows system without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. It is a passive read operation that provides visibility into existing system state. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this tool could only enumerate scheduled tasks, which does not directly harm the system or data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'task_scheduler_list' and description 'List scheduled tasks' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

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