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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "name": "design_execute_plan",
    "arguments": {}

## Why design_execute_plan is rated High

This tool appears to execute design automation plans in Altium Designer via a persistent scripting bridge. The lack of explicit description limits confidence, but 'execute' combined with 'plan' and the server's emphasis on autonomous execution indicates this runs code or workflows with effects dependent on plan content.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'execute' and 'plan'; described as part of '290+ tools for...autonomous design-plan executor' in server description."

## Use case

AI agents invoke design_execute_plan to trigger actions in Eda Agent. 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 Eda Agent:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "design_execute_plan": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "design_execute_plan_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
