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

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

## Why list_grants is rated Low

This tool retrieves and displays existing grant information for a user account. It is a read-only operation with no side effects, no code execution, and no data modification. The blast radius is minimal since it only exposes existing permission metadata that an authorized user would typically be able to query anyway.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'list_grants' and description 'List grants for a restricted user' indicate a query operation that retrieves authorization/permission data without modifying or executing any actions."

## Use case

AI agents call list_grants to retrieve information from Linode 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 Linode MCP Server:

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