## Why getConnectionHistory is rated Low

This tool performs data retrieval of connection history and status records. The verb 'Retrieve' and the read-only nature of historical data access place it in the Read category. Severity is low because access to historical connection events carries minimal blast radius—it does not modify data, execute code, delete records, or trigger financial transactions.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'getConnectionHistory' and description 'Retrieve the history of connection events and status changes' indicate a query operation that retrieves historical data without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call getConnectionHistory to retrieve information from Xdevplatform/xmcp 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 Xdevplatform/xmcp:

```json

  "tools": {
    "getConnectionHistory": {}
  }
