## Why canton_list_parties is rated Low

This tool retrieves a list of known parties without modifying, executing external operations, deleting, or moving funds. It is a straightforward data retrieval endpoint that poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent, as it only exposes existing party information that is already known to the participant.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'canton_list_parties' and description 'List every party known to the participant via GET /v2/parties/known' indicate a read-only query operation using an HTTP GET request."

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

## Use case

AI agents call canton_list_parties to retrieve information from Tenzro Ledger MCP 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 Tenzro Ledger MCP:

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