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

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

## Why get_tensorboard_metrics_tool is rated Low

The tool retrieves TensorBoard metrics (monitoring/logging data), which is a non-destructive query operation with no side effects. No data is modified or deleted. The context of a transpiler/quantum computing server suggests this retrieves performance or training metrics. Severity is low because metric retrieval has minimal blast radius—an agent retrieving metrics cannot damage systems or execute arbitrary code.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_tensorboard_metrics_tool' indicates retrieval of TensorBoard metrics, which is a read operation. The empty description provides no contrary evidence."

## Use case

AI agents call get_tensorboard_metrics_tool to retrieve information from Qiskit IBM Transpiler 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 Qiskit IBM Transpiler MCP Server:

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