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

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

## Why invite_user is rated Medium

This tool creates user invitations and provisions access credentials (API keys), which are reversible write operations. While it affects security and access control (hence 'high' severity for potential misuse), it does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it will 'Invite a new org user and optionally provision workspace access and an API key in one call.' The words 'invite', 'provision', and 'create' (implicit for API key) indicate data creation and modification operations."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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