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

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

## Why enter_position is rated Critical

The tool explicitly places a financial position in a pool tied to token pairs, which constitutes a financial commitment. The server's stated goal is to 'make money' and 'capture revenue from competition pools.' Misuse by an AI agent could result in unauthorized financial positions, loss of funds, or unintended financial obligations, warranting a critical severity rating.

From the tool's own definition: "'Enter an open pool with a position on one side of a token pair' — this commits financial resources into a trading/competition pool, directly involving monetary stakes and potential gains/losses."

## Use case

AI agents use enter_position to commit financial operations through Conviction, usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
