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

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

```

## Why system_time_get is rated Low

This tool simply retrieves read-only information about the system's current time and timezone configuration. It performs no modifications, deletions, executions, or financial operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could learn timing information but cannot alter system state or access sensitive data beyond what is already readable.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'system_time_get' and description 'Get the current system time and timezone' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects."

Risk signals: Admin/system-level operation

## Use case

AI agents call system_time_get to retrieve information from FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server 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 FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server:

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