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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get_protocol_tvl",
    "arguments": {}

}
```

## Why get_protocol_tvl is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries data about DeFi protocol metrics with no side effects or ability to modify state, move funds, or execute code. It is purely informational, analogous to a 'get' or 'fetch' operation. The server context mentions spending and receiving cryptocurrency, but this specific tool only reads TVL data, making it a Read-category risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_protocol_tvl' and description 'Total value locked (TVL) and recent changes for a DeFi protocol via DeFiLlama' indicate retrieval of blockchain/DeFi metric data via an external API."

## Use case

AI agents call get_protocol_tvl to retrieve information from Agenti 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 Agenti:

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