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

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

## Why config_path is rated Medium

This tool modifies configuration state (download path) reversibly. It does not execute code, delete data, or move money. While it can influence where downloads are stored, the change is easily reversible by setting a different path. Classified as Write rather than Read because the 'set' capability modifies persistent configuration, even though viewing is also supported.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Set or view the path where files will be downloaded' — 'set' indicates modification of configuration data."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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