## Why get_tools_by_ids is rated Low

This tool appears to fetch or list tool definitions by their IDs—a pure read operation with no side effects. While it operates within a financial capabilities network, the tool itself only retrieves metadata about available capabilities rather than executing financial operations or modifying state.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_tools_by_ids' and function of retrieving/querying tool metadata by identifiers. Description is incomplete/deprecated but the naming pattern and context indicate a read operation that retrieves information about available tools."

## Use case

AI agents call get_tools_by_ids to retrieve information from Qverisai 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 Qverisai:

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