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

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

## Why create_label is rated Medium

Creating a label is a reversible write operation—labels can be modified, deleted, or reassigned. It does not execute code, delete data irreversibly, or impact financial systems. The severity is medium rather than low because careless label creation could disrupt project organization and workflows if an agent creates many labels or uses inappropriate names, affecting team collaboration.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool creates a new label in a project. The name 'create_label' and description 'Create a new label in a project' directly indicate a create operation that adds data."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
