## Why get_sieve_script is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries the current Sieve script configuration for a mailbox without modifying, executing, or deleting any data. It is purely informational inspection of existing infrastructure state. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius even if misused by an agent, as it only exposes script contents without the ability to modify, execute, or delete them.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_sieve_script' and description 'Get the current Sieve script for a mailbox. Returns the auto-generated script...' - uses 'Get' verb and returns/retrieves data with 'no side effects' as stated in the description ('inspect what is running')."

## Use case

AI agents call get_sieve_script to retrieve information from TrekMail 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)
