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

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

## Why get_file is rated Low

The verb 'Fetch' and the absence of any modification language clearly indicate this is a read-only operation. It retrieves data by ID without creating, updating, deleting, or executing anything. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this would only expose file contents it is authorized to access, with no ability to alter state or trigger external operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_file' with description 'Fetch a specific file by ID' indicates a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_file to retrieve information from Shopify Graphql 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 Shopify Graphql:

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