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

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

## Why PostgreSQL_maintenance_window_activity is rated Low

This is a diagnostic/monitoring tool that queries database state to understand activity trends. It retrieves information about when and how the database is used, supporting maintenance planning. No side effects, no data modification, no code execution, no financial impact. Classified as Read.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool analyzes (reads) database activity patterns during maintenance windows—no modifications, deletions, or external operations. Description uses 'Analyze' and 'activity patterns', indicating data retrieval and inspection only."

## Use case

AI agents call PostgreSQL_maintenance_window_activity 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_maintenance_window_activity": {}
  }
}
```
