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

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

## Why PostgreSQL_table_size_growth is rated Low

This tool performs analysis and reporting on existing table storage characteristics. The term 'analyze' in both the tool name and description, combined with the context of 'storage efficiency' reporting, indicates a data retrieval and diagnostic operation. There is no indication the tool modifies, deletes, executes arbitrary code, or commits financial transactions.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'PostgreSQL_table_size_growth' and description 'Analyze table size growth and storage efficiency' indicate a diagnostic/monitoring operation that queries and reports on database metrics without modifying data."

## Use case

AI agents call PostgreSQL_table_size_growth 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_table_size_growth": {}
  }
}
```
