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

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

## Why pcb_add_testpoints_for_net_class is rated Medium

The tool creates or modifies PCB design by adding test points, which is a reversible write operation. Test points are design artifacts that can be removed or modified later. Severity is medium because incorrect test point placement could affect PCB manufacturability and testing, but is not destructive or irreversible.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'pcb_add_testpoints_for_net_class' contains 'add', indicating creation of design elements (test points) on a PCB. Description is empty, limiting direct evidence."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
