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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {

## Why get_metaobjects is rated Low

This tool retrieves or queries metaobjects without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. 'Fetch' is a read-only operation. No modifications to store data, financial transactions, or destructive actions are possible. Low severity due to limited blast radius if misused by an AI agent—at worst, it exposes data already accessible through authorized API access.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_metaobjects' and description 'Fetch metaobjects of a specific type' indicate data retrieval with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_metaobjects 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_metaobjects": {}
  }
}
```
