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

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

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "gcp_appengine_create_app",

## Why gcp_appengine_create_app is rated Medium

This tool creates a new cloud application resource, which is a Write operation (reversible creation/modification). Severity is high because unauthorized app creation could lead to resource proliferation, cost increases, and potential security exposure of cloud infrastructure, though it is not inherently destructive or financial. High confidence due to explicit 'create' verb and clear description.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_app' and description 'Create an App Engine application' indicate resource creation. Creates a new GCP App Engine application, which is a reversible infrastructure change."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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