# render_skill_report

Render previously-computed BoQ results into a deliverable (Excel workbook or Word report). Excel is free with watermark + sheet protection; Word is paid-tier only and returns a TIER_INSUFFICIENT envelope for anonymous callers. The wire shape matches POST /api/v1/mcp/render exactly.

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": "render_skill_report",
    "arguments": {
      "request": {}
    }
  }
}
```

## Why render_skill_report is rated High

This tool executes a rendering operation that generates files with non-trivial side effects (file creation, format conversion, protection/watermark application). While it operates on previously-computed data (not destructive), it performs external operations whose output depends on arguments and user tier.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool 'render_skill_report' performs rendering operations that generate deliverable files (Excel workbooks or Word reports) with different outputs based on tier status."

Risk signals: Accepts freeform code/query input (request.compute_results[].warnings[].code) · High parameter count (40 properties)

## Use case

AI agents invoke render_skill_report to trigger actions in Civilquants. 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 Civilquants:

```json
