## Why mysql_table_status is rated Low

This tool retrieves and reports status information about database tables. It performs no modifications, deletions, or code execution. It is purely informational in nature, consistent with monitoring and diagnostic operations. The low severity reflects that misuse would only expose information about table structure and performance characteristics, not manipulate data or trigger destructive actions.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'mysql_table_status' and description 'Get comprehensive status information for tables' indicate a query operation that retrieves table metadata and status without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call mysql_table_status to retrieve information from Mysql 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 Mysql:

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