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

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

## Why sch_place_power_port is rated Medium

Placing a power port in a schematic creates or modifies schematic elements reversibly—it is a write operation that alters the design document. While not immediately destructive (can be undone), it changes circuit topology and could introduce electrical errors if misused by an agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'sch_place_power_port' indicates placement of a power port in a schematic, which modifies schematic design data."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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