# discord_update_role Update role attributes including color, permissions, and position Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `discord_update_role`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-update-role ## Facts - Tool: `discord_update_role` - Server: Discord (`arrrnmp/discord-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/arrrnmp/discord-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "discord_update_role", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why discord_update_role is rated Medium This tool modifies role properties (color, permissions, position) within a Discord server. Changing role permissions especially can have significant security implications—an AI agent could inadvertently escalate privileges, alter moderator capabilities, or revoke protective restrictions. However, these changes are reversible (roles can be updated again to prior states), so it is Write rather than Destructive. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'discord_update_role' and description states it 'Update role attributes including color, permissions, and position'. The word 'Update' indicates modification of existing data." ## Use case AI agents use discord_update_role to create or update resources in Discord, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Discord environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Discord: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "discord_update_role": { "limits": [ { "counter": "discord_update_role_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on Discord (125) - `discord_ban_member` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-ban-member.md - `discord_begin_guild_prune` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-begin-guild-prune.md - `discord_bulk_ban_members` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-bulk-ban-members.md - `discord_clear_emoji_reactions` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-clear-emoji-reactions.md - `discord_clear_reactions` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-clear-reactions.md - `discord_delete_application_emoji` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-application-emoji.md - `discord_delete_automod_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-automod-rule.md - `discord_delete_channel` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-channel.md - `discord_delete_channel_permission_overwrite` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-channel-permission-overwrite.md - `discord_delete_guild_emoji` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-guild-emoji.md - `discord_delete_guild_soundboard_sound` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-guild-soundboard-sound.md - `discord_delete_guild_sticker` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-guild-sticker.md - `discord_delete_guild_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-guild-template.md - `discord_delete_invite` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-invite.md - `discord_delete_message` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-message.md - `discord_delete_role` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-role.md - `discord_delete_scheduled_event` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-scheduled-event.md - `discord_delete_stage_instance` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-stage-instance.md - `discord_delete_thread` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-thread.md - `discord_delete_webhook` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-webhook.md - `discord_delete_webhook_message_by_token` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-delete-webhook-message-by-token.md - `discord_kick_member` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-kick-member.md - `discord_purge_messages` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-purge-messages.md - `discord_remove_own_reaction` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-remove-own-reaction.md - `discord_remove_thread_member` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-remove-thread-member.md - `discord_remove_user_reaction` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-remove-user-reaction.md - `discord_execute_webhook_by_token` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-execute-webhook-by-token.md - `discord_set_member_voice_state` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-set-member-voice-state.md - `discord_fetch_guild_ban` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-fetch-guild-ban.md - `discord_fetch_member` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp/discord-fetch-member.md - …and 95 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/arrrnmp-discord-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
