## Why ebay_get_promotions is rated Low

This tool retrieves promotion information from eBay's Marketing API. The verb 'Get' and lack of any modification language ('create', 'update', 'delete') confirm this is a read-only operation. No data is created, modified, or destroyed. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only retrieve promotion details, not manipulate them or cause financial harm.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'ebay_get_promotions' and description 'Get promotions through the eBay Marketing API' indicate a retrieval/query operation with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call ebay_get_promotions to retrieve information from Ebay 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 Ebay:

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