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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {

    "arguments": {
      "path": "<path>",
      "slides": []

  }
}

## Why ppt_create is rated Medium

Creating a PowerPoint file is a write operation that generates new data on disk. It is reversible (the file can be deleted) and has no financial impact, so it falls under Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'ppt_create' and description states it 'Creates a PowerPoint (.pptx) file' — this is file creation/generation that modifies the local filesystem."

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (path)

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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