## Facts

- Tool: `get_disk_usage`
- Server: Allcanuse (`ra1nyxin/allcanuse-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/ra1nyxin-allcanuse-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/ra1nyxin/allcanuse-mcp
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no

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

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

## Why get_disk_usage is rated Low

The tool appears to query disk usage information without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. This is a passive data retrieval operation. Severity is low because disk usage information is generally non-sensitive system metadata. Confidence is reduced slightly (0.85 instead of higher) due to the empty description, which prevents confirmation of potential side effects or unusual behavior.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_disk_usage' indicates retrieval of disk usage statistics. No description provided, but the naming convention and context on a system management server suggest a read-only query operation."

## Use case

AI agents call get_disk_usage to retrieve information from Allcanuse 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 Allcanuse:

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