## Facts

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

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

## Why log_work is rated Medium

Appending a work event is a Write operation: it creates new data (a log entry) on the project board without permanently destroying existing data or executing arbitrary code. The severity is low because logging work events typically has minimal blast radius—the data can be edited or deleted, and misuse would produce spurious log entries rather than financial loss or system compromise.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Append a work event to the board' — this is a create/add operation that records work activity. The name 'log_work' and verb 'append' indicate reversible modification of board state."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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