## Why hippo_review_promotions is rated Low

The tool appears to review and suggest actions based on per-skill assessment, which is consistent with Read category behavior (retrieves or queries data with no side effects). The word 'suggested' implies recommendations rather than execution or modification.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'hippo_review_promotions' combined with description 'suggested action' indicates a review/assessment function that queries or returns recommendations rather than executing changes."

## Use case

AI agents call hippo_review_promotions to retrieve information from Verimem 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 Verimem:

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