## Why get_suggested_questions is rated Low

This tool queries cached analysis results to generate and return review questions. It performs no mutations, does not execute code or commands, and has no side effects beyond returning information. It is a pure read operation that retrieves preprocessed analysis data to support code review workflows.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_suggested_questions' and description indicating it retrieves 'auto-generated, prioritized review questions derived from the analyses we already cache'."

## Use case

AI agents call get_suggested_questions to retrieve information from Trace 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 Trace:

```json
