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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "setRowHeight",
    "arguments": {
      "endRow": 0,
      "sheetId": 0,
      "startRow": 0,
      "pixelSize": 0,
      "spreadsheetId": "<spreadsheetId>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why setRowHeight is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (sheet formatting) reversibly without deleting or overwriting content irreversibly. It does not execute arbitrary code, move money, or have destructive effects. The blast radius is limited to visual formatting of specific rows within a sheet, affecting only the target spreadsheet's layout.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool modifies spreadsheet formatting by setting row heights via 'Set the height (in pixels) of one or more rows in a sheet'. The operation is reversible—heights can be adjusted again to previous values."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json

    "setRowHeight": {
      "limits": [
        {
