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

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

## Why gql_follow_post is rated Medium

Following a post creates or modifies a relationship record (the follow/subscription) in the system, which is reversible (can be unfollowed). This is a write operation that creates new data but does not delete, execute code, move money, or have destructive effects. Severity is low because the blast radius of accidentally following posts is minimal—it only affects notification preferences for the authenticated user.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool performs 'Follow a post' action which modifies user notification preferences/subscription state. The description explicitly states it 'follow[s] a post' indicating a state change operation."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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