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

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

## Why delimit_generate_template is rated Medium

The tool name indicates a generative/creative function that would produce new template content. Without a description, confidence is moderate. The Write category assumes this creates reversible template artifacts. If it actually executes code or modifies system governance (given the server manages 'governance'), severity could escalate, but based on naming alone, Write is most likely.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'delimit_generate_template' suggests creating or generating a template artifact. The verb 'generate' typically indicates content creation (Write category)."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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