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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "git_quick_commit",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why git_quick_commit is rated Medium

git_quick_commit creates or modifies repository history by committing staged changes. While commits are reversible in Git (via revert or reset), they are write operations that permanently alter the repository's committed state. The tool does not delete data (would be Destructive) nor execute arbitrary code (would be Execute).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'commit' and description states it performs 'Quick commit' which creates a new version control record. This is explicitly a write operation that modifies the repository state by creating a commit object."

## Use case

AI agents use git_quick_commit to create or update resources in GitHub MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GitHub MCP Server environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches GitHub MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "git_quick_commit": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "git_quick_commit_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
