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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "frida_enable_child_gating",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why frida_enable_child_gating is rated High

Child gating is a Frida feature that intercepts child process creation, allowing the agent to control or instrument spawned processes. This triggers an external operation on a live instrumentation session with side effects on process execution behavior. It is not purely reading data, nor is it inherently destructive or financial, but it does actively alter the runtime behavior of a session/process.

From the tool's own definition: "'Enable child gating on a session' - activates a Frida session control mechanism that intercepts/gates child processes spawned by the target process"

## Use case

AI agents invoke frida_enable_child_gating to trigger actions in Ya Frida. 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 Ya Frida:
