## Why get_software_lifecycle_report is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves existing lifecycle report data for a product. The description indicates it fetches information (phase dates, CVE breakdown, owners) without any capability to modify, delete, or execute operations. The use of 'Get' in the name combined with 'report details' confirms this is a retrieval operation with no side effects. No financial, destructive, or execution capabilities are present.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Get full lifecycle report details' - retrieves report data without modification. Provides read-only access to product lifecycle information, phase dates, CVE breakdown, and owners."

## Use case

AI agents call get_software_lifecycle_report to retrieve information from ServiceNow-MCP 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)
