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

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

## Why lintBeaconInterpreterC is rated High

While 'lint' typically implies static analysis (a Read operation), the context of this server is a Cobalt Strike C2 framework that enables AI control of adversary simulation. The sibling tool 'runBeaconInterpreterC' executes Beacon interpreter C code, and this tool likely parses/validates the same code. Even if it only lints, operating within a C2 framework against live beacons could have side effects.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'lintBeaconInterpreterC' on a Cobalt Strike C2 framework MCP server; sibling tools include 'runBeaconInterpreterC' and 'executeBeaconConsoleAndWait' which strongly suggest code execution in a C2 context."

## Use case

AI agents invoke lintBeaconInterpreterC to trigger actions in Cobalt Strike MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "lintBeaconInterpreterC": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "lintbeaconinterpreterc_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
