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

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

## Why wait_for_request is rated High

This tool blocks/waits for network requests, which is an active control operation over browser behavior. It's more than passive data retrieval (Read) because it actively pauses execution and interacts with browser state. It doesn't modify data (Write), delete anything (Destructive), or involve finances (Financial).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool uses Chrome DevTools Protocol to 'block until a network request matching the filters is observed' - this actively monitors and pauses execution based on network events, which is an interactive browser control operation that can trigger side effects…"

## Use case

AI agents invoke wait_for_request to trigger actions in Js Reverse. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json

  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "wait_for_request": {
      "limits": [
        {
