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

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

## Why is_contract is rated Low

This tool only retrieves and reports classification information about blockchain addresses. It performs no writes, executions, deletions, or financial operations. The minimal risk stems from potential information disclosure about contract deployments, but this data is already public on-chain and the tool causes no harm. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Check[s] if an address is a smart contract or an externally owned account (EOA)' — a pure query operation with no side effects or state modification."

## Use case

AI agents call is_contract to retrieve information from SEI MCP Server V2 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)
