What track_shipment does on CerebroChain MCP Server

AI agents call track_shipment to retrieve information from CerebroChain MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why track_shipment needs a policy

The tool retrieves tracking data about a shipment. It queries existing state (location, progress, ETA, completed stops) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. This is a read-only information retrieval function. Severity is low because misuse would only expose logistics tracking information, not cause operational harm, financial loss, or data destruction.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get real-time tracking for a shipment route' with details of 'current location, progress, ETA, stops completed.' These are all query/retrieval operations with no modification or side effects.
