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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "vision.render.cache_prune",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why vision.render.cache_prune is rated Low

This is a read-only operation that queries or describes the state of cached render classes without modifying or deleting them. The use of 'would be dropped' (conditional) rather than 'drops' or 'deletes' (imperative) indicates the tool previews the outcome of a potential cache pruning operation rather than performing it. No side effects occur from calling this tool.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'cache_prune' with description 'Describe which cached render classes would be dropped' — the verb is 'Describe' and 'would be dropped' indicates a hypothetical/preview operation, not an actual deletion."

## Use case

AI agents call vision.render.cache_prune to retrieve information from Visionmcp 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 Visionmcp:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "vision.render.cache_prune": {}
  }
}
```
