## Why get_top_protocols is rated Low

This tool retrieves and ranks publicly available DeFi protocol data from an external source (DeFiLlama). It performs no state modifications, does not execute code or commands, does not delete data, and does not move funds. The severity is low because the tool only reads public financial data without the ability to influence markets or user accounts.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_top_protocols' and description 'Top DeFi protocols ranked by total value locked via DeFiLlama' indicates data retrieval/querying of public DeFi protocol rankings with no modification, execution, or financial transaction capability."

## Use case

AI agents call get_top_protocols 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)

```json
{
  "version": "1",
