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

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

## Why modify_sheet_values is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data in Google Sheets in a reversible manner. While it can clear values, the description does not indicate permanent deletion of the sheet itself or irreversible destruction. The high severity reflects that an AI agent with unchecked access could corrupt important spreadsheet data across potentially many rows/columns, affecting multiple users in a Workspace environment.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states it can 'write, update, or clear values' in a Google Sheet. The verb 'modify' combined with these capabilities confirms reversible data mutation."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
