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

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

## Why PostgreSQL_get_all_constraints is rated Low

This tool queries and returns constraint information from a PostgreSQL database without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a read-only introspection operation that retrieves schema metadata. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could gather schema information but cannot alter database structure or data.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate retrieval of constraint metadata: 'Get all table constraints' with no mention of modification, deletion, or execution capabilities. Returns data about CHECK, UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY, and FOREIGN KEY constraints."

## Use case

AI agents call PostgreSQL_get_all_constraints to retrieve information from Postgres 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 Postgres:

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