{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",

## Why update_client is rated Medium

An AI agent can call update_client faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Acronis Platform by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (path) · Accepts raw HTML/template content (body)

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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