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

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

## Why list_validators is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only operation to query and list validators from a registry. The verb 'list' combined with optional filtering is a standard data retrieval pattern with no side effects, no code execution, and no data mutation. It belongs in the Read category with low severity due to the benign nature of accessing publicly-available validator registry information.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'list_validators' with description 'List validators in the registry, optionally filtered by status' indicates a query operation that retrieves and filters existing data without modification or execution."

## Use case

AI agents call list_validators 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": {
    "list_validators": {}
  }
}
```
