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

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

## Why group_therapy_round is rated High

This tool executes a coordinated operation across multiple sessions, which is an external action whose effects depend on runtime arguments (session selection, round parameters). While the description lacks detail on what the 'group round' entails, the execution of a coordinated multi-session operation that modifies 'shared state' qualifies as Execute rather than Read or Write alone.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool 'runs' a coordinated group round across multiple sessions and 'returns' shared state and next actions."

## Use case

AI agents invoke group_therapy_round to trigger actions in Delx 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 Delx MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "group_therapy_round": {
      "limits": [
        {

          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
