## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `agent_config` | object | yes |  |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

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

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

## Why theprotocol_importAgent is rated Medium

Although the description includes a DESTRUCTIVE tag, the operation itself—importing an agent configuration from a snapshot—is a reversible creation or modification of data. This falls under Write rather than Destructive. However, if 'import' can overwrite existing agent configurations without warning or recovery options, severity could escalate to high.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'import agent configuration (creates from snapshot)' — the word 'creates' indicates data creation/modification."

## Use case

AI agents use theprotocol_importAgent to create or update resources in TheProtocol — Sovereign AI Agent Platform, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your TheProtocol — Sovereign AI Agent Platform environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches TheProtocol — Sovereign AI Agent Platform:

```json
